Young Gun
There was relief in feeling the storms approach
He thought as he rode into town
These past few evenings have been so hot
That it burns when he lays on the ground
Our main character is a young gun cowboy
At a saloon just west of Santa Fe
He came to collect his rightful bounty
On the two men he killed the other day
Hard rains are pouring down on him
As William dismounts his steed
This saloon had decent whiskey and women
And for William that’s all he needs
William is not just some two bit outlaw
Running scared from all he did
William is quite infamous in these parts
You see, William is…Billy the Kid
The Kid was never good with authority
But he was exceptional with his steel
His reputation as a prolific gunman
Was hard for him to conceal
With a whiskey bottle and a filthy glass
He sat in the corner with face to the door
The Kid had to be careful of the law man’s gun
Or the Kid won’t be the Kid no more
Part 2
The Kid was kissing a young lady of the night
As two big men with big guns appeared
They are not the men he was supposed to meet
He gave his mistress a kiss.then she disappeared
The Kid knew these men were coming for him
He could see the Devils notion in their eyes
With big steps they approached his table
With their peacemakers hung on their thighs
“What can I do you for? “The Kid said to them
“We are looking for a coward named Billy.”
The kid looked around to see people leaving
The emotions in this room just got chilly
“We heard there’s a bounty on his head
And that his head looks just like you!”
Billy was at home in these desperate situations
He said”that’s fine what do you want to do!?”
Part 3
The kid knew that he was outnumbered
But this time it was only by one
Billy stood quickly to face his Assassins
Then fired two quick shots from his gun
One of Billy’s bullets struck their mark
The fat ugly man took it to his brain
The second man’s hand fumbled his grip
His gun was still wet from the rain
Billy took advantage of the man’s bad luck
He ran for cover behind the bar
The other man fired off 4 wild rounds
Showering him with glass from a jar
Billy found Himself in quite the pickle
If he were to stand up he would die
He never thought he would go out this way
But then he heard Charlie outside
Charlie Bowden was Billy’s lifelong pal
He came bursting in, barrels blazing
His double barreled 12 gauge hit its mark
Billy thought…Charlie is fucking Amazing!!
With that the Pals got on their horses
Charlie paid him his hitman wages
Charlie watched Billy ride into the night
He knew they would never put Billy in cages
