And Into Town

So, they rode into Town

For the help of a friend of old.

For Lom they could trust.

Because he had been once

one of them, an outlaw, too.

So they thought, he was perfect

to ask their dear governor

for amnesty so they could

end their lawless way in peace.

Oh, but Lom did not believe

at first as he heard this.

Thought this were another crazy scheme.

But serious they were, indeed.

They called themselves Smith and Jones,

to greet the Town’s pretty banker.

But soon suspicion rose,

after Lom was gone.

Because in Jail

they were brought

Old friend betrays old friends?

Oh, no, none of this

Lom did intend

Out of trouble

he thought to keep

those two.

Well, Kid and Hayes

had their own thoughts

about how to do this.

So, they got out of Jail.

So, all would have been fine,

if not for deputy Harper.

For he took their guns,

on Lom’s orders of cause.

To keep them outta trouble.

So, now they felt naked.

Well, at least Kid did.

Things got out of hand - fast.

So, they had to get back their guns, fast.

Travellers, they were,

but with jobs they were not.

So, a job was what they needed.

But who thought these

two bank robbers would end up

themselves as bankers?

On the other side?
