Three Limericks

KELLY AND MULDOON

Kelly and Muldoon went to rob a bank
Both had been drinking all day and they stank
They sat counting the money
Folks thought it was so funny
When police hauled them off to the drunk tank... 

BREAKING BAD

You've probably heard of Walter and Jesse
Made blue meth and had it down to a tee 
The cartel were enraged 
So hitmen were engaged 
As a warning hung them both from a tree... 


GUNFIGHT AT THE OK CORRAL

The Clanton gang went to Tombstone to kill
Doc Holiday, Morgan, Wyatt and Virgil
Gunfight didn't go their way
They were having a bad day
Now they are all at rest up at Boot Hill...

I hear funeral plots on Boot Hill are still selling for just $10. LOL I visited Tombstone years ago and saw the gunfight recreated for tourists. Enjoyed all of the limericks, Tom! Thanks for the laughs, Carolyn

Thank you Kim, things were changing fast, the wild west was being tamed with law enforcement agencies like the Pinkertons tracking outlaws and helping to bring order to the wild west. Tom

Oh no, that should have been a priority, car serviced and a full tank of gas. Tom
