Morgan Secret Recipe Part 2

The stranger left town but return a fortnight with six more men armed with guns and blades, They came face to face with the townfolks bearing choppers and chains, And in their midst was Morgan and his sons, Each carrying pistols and two barrel shotguns, The tension was filling the air and the breathing was hard, Around the corner stood, wives and children all armed, With anything they can get their hands on, Both sides came closer with every stride, And while the surrounding was getting hot and tensed, A boy ran out to meet the stranger with his toy gun pointing at him, And Bang! A single shot was fired, And on the floor laid the stranger without blood, For a moment shocked registered across the faces on both sides, And then laughters filled the air, The boy stood confused at the crowd as he thought he killed the man with a single bullet, And to his surprise the stranger sit up and smile back, The stranger stood up and looked at Morgan, At once the crowd grew silent and nervously waited, The strangers spoke with coldness in his voice, I have done things so hideous and never regret, But now I carry my worst demons on my back, I cannot bring your boys back, But I and my trusted gang will die before your family is in danger again, We have come to protect you and your family as bodyguards, Your enemies are many and you could get all the help you can get, And I am not asking for your permission nor any of my men, There's a war coming to this town for the price on your head.
