Just Up and Left

Without a word

He left the Gulch

There was something needed doin'


Too many years had passed

To pay a debt

To a life he'd left in ruin


Somehow he knew

He didn't have long

He only hoped she'd wait


But before he arrived

She passed away

All his effort was too late


The folks in Dog Flats

Knew his name

Knew his reputation


What they didn't know

Was he loved Lee Tyler

Beyond all expectation


He made his peace

Stiffened his back

And turned around


Headed to the Gulch

To the place called home

And good friends he'd found
