Justice In Texas

A strong wind blows across the Texas sand, As the sun is sinking low in the sky. Three men ride into the town of Laredo, In the distance you hear a coyote's cry. Ponies hitched outside a Cantina, Inside is laughter as a guitar plays. Covered in trail dust, the three men enter, Shots ring out and then a deadman lays. Seven weeks earlier in El Paso, A man walked into a hotel room. A couple in bed, after being wed, He pulled his pistol and shot the groom. With a look of hatred on his face, Fired his second shot and killed the bride. Then out of town on his horse he rode, While the two young lovers bled inside. Story was, this cold-blooded killer, Had once been in love with this young lady. He swore that no other man would have her, But she knew his intentions were shady. Now in the Cantina, lying face down, His corpse was looked on by all the others. No judge or jury would seal his fate, Justice was served by her three brothers.
