SLOWLY HE WALKED
TO THE END
OF THE BAR AND
HE ORDERED UP
ONE SLUG OF GIN

g

WELL I COULD SEE
THAT HE WASN'T
A LARGE MAN
I COULD TELL THAT
HE WASN'T T00 TALL

I JUDGED HIM TO BE
ABOUT FIVE FOOT
THREE
AND HIS VOICE
WAS A SOFT TEXAS DRAWL

SAID HE WOULD WORK
THROUGH THE WINTER
FOR THIRTY A MONTH
AND HIS BOARD

AND I COULD TELL
HE WAS A LOOKIN'
FOR TROUBLE
BY THE WAY THAT
HE CAME STOMPIN' IN

HE TOLD ME TO LEAVE
SHORTY THERE
BY HIMSELF
COME DOWN AND
WAIT ON A MAN

WHEN THE LITTLE MAN
SPOKE THERE
WAS STILLNESS
HE MADE SURE
THAT EVERYONE HEARD

SLOWLY HE STEPPED
AWAY FROM THE BAR
AND I STILL
REMEMBER THESE WORDS

OH IT'S PLAIN THAT
YOU'RE LOOKIN'
FOR TROUBLE

TROUBLE'S WHAT
I TRY TO SHUN

HIS HAND WAS ALREADY
POSITIONED
HIS FEET WIDE APART
ON THE FLOOR

I HADN'T NOTICED BUT
THERE ON HIS HIP WAS
A SHORT BARRELED
BAD 44

IT WAS PLAIN HE WAS
READY AND WAITIN'
HE LEANED A BIT
FORWARD AND SAID

WHEN YOU CALL ME
SHORTY SAY MR.
MY FRIEND
MAYBE YOU'D RATHER
BE DEAD

ALL DRINKIN' STOPPED
AND THE TICK OF
THE CLOCK
SAID DEATH WOULD
WAIT TEN SECONDS MORE

HE CURSED ONCE
0R TWICE IN
A WHISPER

AND HE SAID WITH
A SNARL ON HIS LIPS

NOBODY'S MR. TO ME
LITTLE MAN
AND HE GRABBED FOR
THE GUN ON HIS HIP

A LITTLE ROUND HOLE
HAD APPEARED ON
HIS SHIRT
THE BULLET WENT CLEAR
THROUGH HIS HEART

THE LITTLE MAN STOOD
THERE A MOMENT
THEN HOLSTERED

THE BAD 44

IT'S ALWAYS THIS WAY
SO I NEVER STAY

SLOWLY HE WALKED
OUT THE DOOR

THEY WON'T FORGET
HOW A 44 GUN
ONE NIGHT MADE THE
DIFFERENCE IN SIZE

AS FOR ME I'LL
REMEMBER
THE SADNESS

SHOWN IN
THE EYES OF
THE MAN

IF WE MEET SOME DAY
YOU CAN BET
I WOULD SAY
THAT IT'S ME
MR. SHORTY
YOUR FRIEND...
