All eyes were on the Stranger that rode into Deerville, folks figured he was up to no good!

A stranger rode slowly into town,
Wearing a dusty poncho and his hat was pulled low down.
Suspicious eyes watched every move, as his horse was tied,
The townfolk guessed another gunslinger had rode in, and they stayed inside.
No one was friendly and no one said," Hello",
They just wanted the stranger to go!
The stranger pushed through the bar doors,
Fresh meat and more money, thought the bar whores!
The batrender approached, thinking it was another saddletramp,
Then off came the poncho and hat, revealing a vamp!
She grinned at all the gaped open mouths,
She ordered a whiskey, usin a drawl from the South!
The bartender poured her a drink,
He made his move and gave her a wink.
She wiped her lips with the back of her hand,
Then she let out with some cuss words that could match any man!
The bartender backed off in total surprise,
He was suddenly alarmed by the gleem in her eyes!
" Do you know of a man named Bart Deer?"
The Beauty continued," I hear tell that he lives here".
Bart Deer was a rich rancher's son,
The rancher owned the town, that was knowed by everyone.
A drunk cowboy asked," Why do you wanna know fur?", givin lip,
She turned to face him, reaching fur the gun on her hip.
This caused the barflies to laugh, what could this snip of a girl do?
Her draw was like lightening and the bullets flew!
With her gun still smoking, she put it away,
She had blown out all the candles in the hanging light, with her gun play.
She sneered," Go tell Bart Deer that Will Tucker is here!"
" Get a move on afore I shoot yore mangy rear!"
With that, the bartender lit a shuck!
With the steel-eyed beauty, he wanted no truck!
In what seemed to be no time, Bart and his Daddy did appear,
Bart's Daddy said," Who are you, What do you want and what are you doin here?"
She yelled," Shut-up old man! this here is between me and Bart!"
" Tell yore Daddy how you short my Daddy in the heart!"
" My Daddy was unarmed, and caught Bart cheatin at cards",
" Bart you are a low down yellow skunk and a tub of lard!"
Bart and Beauty were preparin to draw,
When someone yelled," Somebody go get the law!"
In less than a heartbeat, Bart lay dead!
His weepin Daddy, was holdin his wounded head!
Beauty spat in Barts face and then walked away,
Vengeance had rode into town and it was Hell to pay!
