What Happened that Night

Billy had seen Buck enter the town.

He could feel his face frown.

Suddenly a memory came to light

Of what happened between

Lou and him last night.


"If you know what's good for you,

You'll stay away from Lou."

Billy didn't expect Buck to listen,

He wouldn't either if it were Rue.


Myna and the Marshall

Came up with a plan

Not one he could understand

Why use Myna as bait?

And have him sit and wait?


What was worse was he had

Been told to babysit

Margarita who no doubt

Would be in a fit

His woman problems just won't quit


He checked with his scouts around the mines

If Tex Mex nabbed the TNT he'd know in no time

Right now all they had to report

Was someone who sounded like Buck

ridin into town with another unsavory sort


He left to check on Lou

And found guess who

Buck had once again made a muck

He swore the man had the worst luck


Then there was mention of a twin named Bruce

He knew then he should cut loose

He checked around town

But no one could be found.


He got back to Lou's to see her slam the door

Buck looked like hell once more

Buck moved along, to where he wasn't sure

But Billy stopped at Lou's place once more


He tried the door but it was locked

So he was forced to knock

"Come on Lou, it's me."
