Pat Garret

Every dog has his day every kid has his fun.
But the dust has settled  on this  town.
And its bout time you turned tail and  run.

The draw may be fast but what about the 
one you dont see.
Friends  can make the best enemy,

For to be a legend first you must be made a tragedy.
For every hero  must have his villan.
A judas to betray.
But after these lines soon you will all but
fade away.

Kid you might but be careful with whom you play.
Words can be bullets.
So I always aim for the heart with everyone i say.

Billy your hero seems more like a pawn.
in a war of words 
your simpley a yawn.

As charming as a old creaky latch.
Take caution for my friend.
You've just met your match.
