No Fears

The ride back to town was long,

My brain was on fire;

Even though Billy had gagged

Snicka, the filthy liar.

Got Snicka all locked up,

In a new jail cell;

Won't let him out of sight,

Until we send him to hell.

What a great relief,

Lorne is up and about;

He will recover fully,

Of that I have no doubt.

Lorne and I head out,

To send a wire to the county seat.

We need the circuit judge,

To come to town toot-sweet.

On the way to the office,

Lorne stops up short...

"What is it my rose?

Why are you so out of sorts?"

"I'm so sorry my love,

It's Snicka, that knave...

He not only hurt you,

But he sent Jack to his grave.

It's now all so clear!

I should have known!

Snicka's completely insane,

Now he must atone!"

Taking me in his arms,

Lorne whispers in my ear...

"Darling, no reason to be sorry.

Myna look at me,

He will hang for this.

He will not go free.

Soon enough,

The judge will be here,

Snicka confessed,

He made his guilt clear.

We have four witnesses,

They will all testify.

You know that means?

Snicka Doodle will fry."

Lost in my husbands arms,

My worries seemed to fade.

I am Mrs. Lorne Order...

And have no reason to be afraid.
