A Western Gun by Razel DaviesSaddle on over,
The wasted land.
Never giv’n up,
With a Colt in my hand.
Ride’n on through,
These dusty towns.
Bandits on horses,
Bullet hole frowns.
Lawmen drink’n,
Corruption shots.
Thieves and muggers,
Have the people in knots.
With a .44 holstered,
Quick-draw them dead.
Townsfolk are rise’n,
The rebellion led. 03/13/2009
Author's Note: Written after playing the game Gun on PS2.
