The Ballad of Frank and NWAT
Frank had been in town a while
But he wasn't dressed in style
When at last the zip he freed
It came in time, before he p.....
Cactus suit fell to the floor
He hang it on the hook on door
Picture in the local paper
Put an end to cacti caper
BG was a mystery
Sheriff had found
4 crates of winchesters
thought it was bad
He said this is sinister
Ready to leave
Frank had his horse saddled
But then he saw this NWAT girl
whose mind seemed slightly addled
Girl, Frank said, this is not fun
I'm through with all this trading guns
Come over here and we will talk
You don't say much - here use this chalk
NWAT drew a windmill on the side of Frank's black stallion
That's nice, he smiled , excuse me can I see your gold medallion
Slowly NWAT handed him the necklace with a clasp
They looked inside and there behold the picture made him gasp
A girl that looked like NWAT,
but younger, such a thrill
Caus underneath, inscribed in blue, it said 'To our girl Sue'
'From Ma and Pa (don't forget to brush your teeth)
Sue looked up into Franks eyes, a NWAT now no more
She whispered, please stop shooting birds
I can't abide the gore
Could you build a windmill Frank
It might provide a living
You could grind the grain for flour
and I could do the sieving
Hey that's not a bad idea
I'm going to find the wood
I'm bored with always shooting men
I'm going to do some good
