THE GUNFIGHTER

 

A young cowboy was sat in the saloon

One Saturday night looking his best

When an old man walked into the bar

Who was once the fastest gun in the West

 

The cowboy sidled up to the old shootist

He bought him a two fingered whiskey tot

And without looking at him he asked
“Can you give me a tip to be a great shot?”

He said, “You're wearing your gun too high,

Tie the holster a little lower down your thigh”
The kid adjusted his rig then drew his gun

And shot off the piano player’s bow tie

Then he said, “now, where the hammer

Hits the leather, cut a notch in your holster”

The kid adjusted his rig then drew his gun

And shot the cuff link off piano player

 
“That's great” said the kid “Got any more tips?”
The shootist said “now go and coat your gun

Thoroughly in axle grease including the handle”

The kid went outside returning with it done


“Will this make me a better shot?” he asked
“No” said the old gunman “but Ringo

Will shove that gun right up your arse,

When he finishes playing the piano”
