This is how the Blockquote tag was intended to be used:
We rode hard each day, from dawn to dusk, covering 30 miles of the roughest, driest, hottest land east of Alamogordo. If the rattlesnakes didn't bite you, the flies would. But we were running 300 head of Grade A, USDA American beef, so we kept on going. Every morning we woke up to Loco Bob's crazy wake-up song:
"Yippie-kye-yay, yie-yie-yie-yay, look on up, that sun is shining! Yie-yie-yeh, yippie-kye, yippie-yay, now I don't want to hear no whining! Yie! Yay! Yippie kye-yie-yeh! Yay-yay-kippie-yie-yey..."
I can't honestly say it put anyone in a good mood, but before he was done, most of us were saddled up and heading west. Not looking forward to our destination, really. Just trying to get out of earshot of Bob's awful song.
Use the Blockquote tag to indent text:
