He's Got Clint Eastwood Eye's

His hair starting to recede,
his lips a thin line,
his hands always carrying a gun,
he's got Clint Eastwood eye's,

He'll turn the tables on you,
you had better think twice,
either giving you a punch,
or rolling you like your dice,

And he'll sneeze at you,
just to tease you,
says' "you better freeze or I'll shoot you"
he's ferocious,
and he knows just what it takes to make a pro run,
he's got a Dirty Harry 45 magnum at his side,
he's got Clint Eastwood eye's,

He's either good, bad, or ugly,
you can take your pick,
starring in spaghetti westerns,
most of which turned out to be hits,

And he'll stare at you
and he'll glare at you,
squinting because of all the crime hullaballoo,
running after all the bad guys,
while you sit in your easy chair and eat your buttered popcorn,
he's aged a bit which is a crime,
yet he's still got Clint Eastwood eyes!

A cool, cool tribute, Cheryl. I loved his movies. His best nickname was in "Good, Bad, Ugly." He was called Blondie. A tough guy named Blondie that was so rich. Ty for this morning treat, dear. I loved it so much. Love always.

Glad you liked it Freddie; Clint was always a tough character in his flicks, running after the bad guys giving them more than a kick! P & L~Che

A great story inspired by one of my fave songs! Who would win a staredown? Clint or Bette? Like it! ~ j

Hm, that's a hard one to answer; it would probably be a tie in the staring contest, lol! Thanks lim'rik!:)

OMG... I am so sorry Cheryl. It won't ever happen again and feel free to call me Fred or Joe if you like, I deserve it. :)
