sung to the tune in your head he was smoke and mash whiskey rode in on a big black steed drank with the finest saloon girls to quench his insatiable need she was night in black velvet hiding behind secret walls practiced her song in pink lamplight and longed for the gentle man’s call his holster contained a big gun he fingered the mother of pearl black leather boasted his swagger he knew he’d get his girl she let him play her piano in the music room of her dreams now he orchestrates all of her soul ohhhhhhs and she dances in berries and cream they didn’t ride off in the sunset but they might steal the day with a kiss or passions unveiled in the moonlight to capture a moment of bliss No End |

great rhythm and flow lively oater scenes could see the whole scene even the parts left to the minds eye, i.e. saloon doors swinging ruffles and lace J.D. and jiggers and boot spurs pock-marking old wooden floors stained with spitoon target practice three sheets to the wind hehehehe Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

they didn’t ride off in the sunset but they might steal the day with a kiss No end.... is the the best way to remember and a pretty nice place to be.
