Hoping It's Not Too Late

Galina left the jail lookin' pale

3Gun went in and stopped at the door

"I just told her no dice, so set sail.

Told her didn't want to see her no more."

"What did she want, she looked kinda pale?"

"She said Ruby had plans to bust the girls out of jail.

Somethin' about a pudding for Marshal Order."

"I better send him a wire, I need to report her."

"I also need you to watch Darkly and Kae.

They need to compromise, there's no other way.

I'm makin' up a dead or alive flyer,

sure hope the Marshal sees Ruby's a liar."

"CG's verifyin' the assayer's claim, I hate to think

what could happen if they turn out the same.

We'll have every cheap crook and con man

from here to the coast, and the gunmen that follow,

the crowd I hate most."

"You think perhaps we should hire more men?"

"We may have to, but I ain't sure when.

I sure wish this Ruby thing could get put to bed.

All these women are diggin' a hole in my head."

"Speakin' of women, can I have some of that pie?"

"Over my dead body, and I ain't figurin' to die."

stannbear nodded and tipped his hat as he left

He could sneak some later, say they had a theft
