I named my van 84 westy (Tiico) Ol' Paint, the paint is in fact old and
mostly serviceable. This van has a lot of heart and is my daily driver.
Here are the words to the song "Old Paint":

I ride an old paint
I lead an old dan
I'm going to Montana
To throw a hoolihan
They feed in the coolies
They water in the draw
Their tails are all matted
Their backs are all raw.

Ride around
Ride around real slow
The fiery'n snuffy are raring to go.

 This song even though in was written in the 1870? anyone? is an obvious
reference to Westies.

Ok last verse:

Well when I die
Take my saddle from the wall
Put on my pony and lead it from the stall
Tie my bones to his back
Turn our faces to the west
And will ride the prairie
That we like the best.

 Bill  Witz 84 Tiico Westy Ol'Paint
