Let Us Let That Little Gal Be

Cowboy Jay entered the saloon today
Found a fine gal named Fanny May
Said wife did not get him
So he came in on a whim
Fanny said let’s go upstairs and play.

Jay’s wife came in at a quarter ‘til three.
Bartender said get! She shot up his knee.
Fanny hid under the bed
Cowboy Jay is now dead
Sheriff said “Let’s let that little gal be.”
