Busted Gulch vol 7

Eccentric? - No I'm English! (silenttomorrows)

Eccentric? - No I'm English!

Frank had come from England

But that was all folks knew

His history was a mystery

But rumours stuck like glue

His mother worked real hard but she couldn't make ends meet

They festered in the workhouse till Frank got on his feet

Brute bare knuckle fighting, cash for every win

Till Frank went to the fairground and saw the lady spin

The knives blindfolded man threw, wanged against the wood

But always twixt her limbs

By George his aim was good

So Frank he joined the travelling Fair

Learned to shoot revolvers

Spinning guns and shooting fast

Then back into his holsters

This is bout the time when Frank stared to invent

girls would often visit,

Slap 'n' tickle in his tent

Frank invested money into the spinning Jen

And studied crop rotation and turnips from Sweden

Then Frank read a small article in paper bout the West

It had his fish and chips in it, he got some down his vest

Setting sail for New York he got in with a gang

They used him as a hired gun to shoot their fellow men

But Frank he hankered for a place where he could live life free

Find a girl and settle down and leave the killin be

So off he went to Busted Gulch to try and sell his wares

Though spinning guns were out of vogue but NWAT seemed to care

They met Hugh

NWAT was Sue

A windmill was their challenge

They toiled hard in Hugh's back yard to get a work life balance....

Then Frank he had a great idea about the sheriffs twirling stick

And thought he understood, what 3gun needed from his chick

First he shot a wild boar and prised off all its bristles

Formin' twirly toothbrush makes teeth bright 'n' clean like chisels

Judging 3gun's height and fixing from the ceiling

Frank nailed in some pulleys, but where was the rope leading?

Rope went through the window and connected to a cog

On a static bicycle, yes that should do the job

Frank asked kindly CG, please come and help your man

So she mounted on the bike, blushed when Frank lent a hand

Then Frank got the sheriff and shouted CG peddle

Toothpaste on the whirly stick did twizzle when she treadles

Twirly whirly toothbrush stick made 3guns teeth so clean

That folks came in from outa town Just to see them gleam

Frank thought she is getting hot and offered parasol

she was game and carried on

peddling the rigmarole

Frank was fond of Caroline

Though she was a little sassy

He knew she was the sheriffs girl

but ...

She had a real nice chassis
