The Continuing Saga of Zack Waverly Vol 6

Page 1 A badge laid there upon the desk Barely shining thru the dust and the six gun there beside it neglected, full of rust There hadn't been a sheriff here For days or months nor years and since that day the sheriff died The town was gripped by fear It didn't seem that long ago It feels like yesterday The streets were filled with people and the children hard at play That was until that stormy night when a stranger came to town Looking for the sheriff with intent to gun him down I was in the lobby at the hotel 'cross the street asking for a room and a place where I might eat When I glanced out of the window where the street lamp lit the night I saw the shadows of two men as they began to fight I thought that maybe I should help but I've been down that road before I've learn to mind my business It's just something that I swore But lookin' back, I might have changed the future of this town Or ended up "here" for good! six feet underground To Be Continued Tomorrow same time, same place HeeeeYaaaaaa !!!
