Preparations

Stood lookin' at myself in the mirror

Been a lawman long time in BG

Straightened my tie, set my hat

Well, what you get is what you see


Tonight for Rue

 is a long time dream

Thought we'd never see the day

But dreams do come true it would seem

And we'll ensure it goes okay


Give the star a polish, strap on my gun

A dash of lilac to please CG

Rub my boots on the back of my pants

Then off on my rounds of security


Denver had booked the brand new suite

Both Lotta and Satchel were elated

The hotel ledger was complete

The partnership with Rue succeeded


O'Boyle made one final pass

On the high roller room and casino floor

An extra check that all was well

Before opening the door


Brody did the kitchen,

Checkroom and backstage

Then watched the casino tellers

Lock the banker's cage


I checked the fire escapes and hall

No place for anyone to hide

Nothing seemed amiss at all

So I left and went outside


Tru Badour was busy entertaining

The line-up building in the street

I gave him a nod and hurried on

I had my gal, CG to meet
