I Spy
Ricky RatScratched his ass
Wriggled in his chair
Passed some natural gas.
He stretched his boot
Knocked over his mug
"Damn blame it!"
He yelped with a shrug.
A lad ran to his porch
Ricky brushed at the cider
"What do you want runt?"
"I saw an outsider!"
"An outsider ... who?
What'd you want me to do?"
The lad stood his ground
"I reckon it's worth a penny or two."
"The fellow don't talk much
But walks around the city."
"Show me where he's at"
They rushed to the spot quickly.
The lad ran off with his penny
Ricky hid behind a barrel
The man-made no-fuss strollin'
Dressed up in his fancy apparel.
Ricky snuck behind a house
He gave a horse a pretend apple
He yelled at a drunk
He carried about a saddle.
Near the station,
the man stopped
He had mozied till sundown
he called for his horseand rode out of town.
Ricky was balled up
"The sheriff is on the cot
CG mightn't be back
Talk to the deputy ... worth a shot."
