a Western song... written as a Western Song about the Old West and Wyatt Earp... one of my Heroes.
Between the dragoon and the whetstone mountains
Sets the western town of Tombstone
Virgil Earp's awake now
And the coffee's probably still on
Last night there was a slight altercation
A Chinaman died playing Faro
No one would help and his
Blood's probably still on the floor
The Clanton's and the Mc Laury's
Raised cattle near the San Pedro river
And it's funny how cattle and horses
And crime seem to mix
Ike Clanton was a gambler and drinker
And whiskey's a fuel for a fire
And a colt 44 is so real when it's worn on your hip
1881 and the law is the gun
And you better keep your powder dry
The O.K. Corral is the battlefield
And a couple of cowboys will die
And a couple of lawmen will ride
Doc Holiday looked like an actor
In a play about the desperately dieing
Trying to take all you can
By winning one hand
But you can't win when the odds are against ya'
And hour by hour you listen
For the hammer of a six gun to click
And this might be it
