A Johnny no Cash type song
Rusty Brown walked into town
looking for the vermin,
That shot his Poppa down , AAHH, Umm (Is optional here)
He didn’t have to look too far , Cos,
Standing at the bar,
was the mangy dog,
that shot, his Poppa down.
Rusty was the toughest meanest,
dog that ever stood on two legs, Ah, Ah Umm.
and he could Pee, crouched down.
in the middle of a crowd. Ah, Ah, a Um,Um
But he found it very very hard,
to Pee, standing up.
Unless he could lean on a lamp post
or a tree.
Such are the travails of a canine,
with only two legs, one
in opposite ends of his body,
which tended to make him
topple over a lot.
The Gunslinger, eyed up Rusty Brown,
and laughed , and laughed,
till his pants fell down,
Then Rusty saw his chance,
he bit the gunslinger in a place ,
where his marbles dance. AAh ah ah Umm Aha ahh Umm
The fallen Gunslinger,
never came back to the bar,
rode off into the sunset,
with a pillow, and side saddle cross bar,.....AAhh ah Um UM...
