Just Hanging Around

Once in the ghost town they called rotgut
Seen mortician dancing dead mans strut
Six shooter brought Slim down
Black smith hurried left town
Guess hang by boots then when in a rut

A Town Called Rotgut

saloons are just another form of dealing with depression
I hate drinking away nights
saying yes to bartenders
saying no to reality 
take a dip in the cold waters
harsh and real
life is for losers I thought
but maybe I should really try living sometime

Steers

Did you ever want to ride on the range
wear a tin star
be a cowboy?
no?
strange
I did.

I wanted to rustle some beef
take them across the Rio..
shoot it out with
Lee Van Cleef.

I wanted Rowdy Yates
to wait for me
wanted to drink sour mash rotgut
in Tennessee,
see the Mississippi and
cry yippee ki yay,

not to be
except
on the TV.

Rotgut Sheriff

I am the Sheriff of Rotgut, come to the town saloon
We need new recruits, let’s test your belly and guts
Taste the spirits; in the shootout you’ll need a boon
I am the sheriff of Rotgut, come to the town saloon
Bring your mere and ride it well to the dusty dune
Shake your hips well, celebrate if shoot off the butts 
I am the sheriff of Rotgut, come to the town saloon
We need new recruits, let’s test your belly and guts
