The Bun Fight at The OK Carrol

Listen to poem:
The Earp brothers all gathered, and stood in a row with their own large tashes Along with Doc Holliday, thought they would give the cowboys a good bashing Doc Holliday, under the cover of his coat; was loaded with cream buns in hand Virgil after a quick slurp of his bun got the first shot in on Billie’s chest did land Two buns in hand, Doc Holliday, then brought good looker, Tom McLaury down Once down young Tom McLaury was as never again to rise up from the ground Wyatt Earp, who owned between all the Earp brothers the bigger of the tashes Tombstone rumour had it; it was only there to cover up one almighty of rashes Hit Frank McLaury, with a cream chocolate éclair, who gave one, back in return But as Frank was allergic to chocolate his wound gave him righty some concern Ike Clanton and Billy Claiborne, young’uns who like to use butties and not buns Both turn on their well spurred cowboy boots heels, and like hell started to run Shot Frank McLaury, and Billy Clanton, managed to lob a few more cream buns Virgil Earp and Brother Morgan, along with Doc Holliday they all got it in return 30 seconds later the cream bun fight of the OK Corral, was all done and dusted Earp’s brothers with their big tashes, as the Doc had gave all they could muster Billie Clanton, Tom as Frank McLaury were left on the ground covered in cream Never to rise again as be a part of the badly organized notorious cowboy team Sheriff Behan, a witness but not involved, on account he was eating his burger Decided enough was enough, charged the Earp’s and Doc Holliday with murder They say that day over 30 cream buns were thrown, that’s what they reckoned In all that making it one cream bun thrown at each other, for every one second Later on, Ike Clanton, and Billie Claiborne, returned to hand in their statements But the Tombstone justice of peace threw the case out on grounds of mitigation So the tashed Earp brothers Virgil, Morgan and Wyatt with the Doc walked free Lucky for them, as it meant there would be no hangings, from the hanging tree
