The Law[yer]man’s Quest He stands tall for a man of the ‘90’s, it’s true He has a lawyer’s stature and style But he is not what he appears to you It’s hidden beneath the mustache, in his smile. For what he is on weekends, is a lawman enthusiast Not a cop, nor detective, but a lawman from the 90’s past. He promotes the rules, the laws he will enforce, he’ll shoot you straight up, so the lesson is don’t stray, of course. The skits performed look so real, gunpowder fills the air Don’t turn your back on him, you wouldn’t even dare. His duds they are real, he spares no expense He’ll even tear his trousers as he quick jumps over a fence. He can talk the lingo and he can walk the walk And the villains for sure, away from him balk. He’s not one for horses, but for sure he can ride He’s more for a pistol on his hip, and a friend by his side. He’ll take the law and enforce it for your safety’s sake He’ll even spit in the villain’s eye, and rid the evil snake. This 1990’s “now” lawyer, and 1890’s “then” lawman Will protect you now, as he could then, for lawlessness he will ban. 12 August, 1999 ©KRJ ------------------ Sunshine Words will always express our feelings true. ~~~ KRJ Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |
