I knew it wasn't an ordinary pickle But it was about the same time I noticed the cord hangin' out of the pickle That a four foot cop arrived with a five foot gun A cop that one time musta been around six foot three But was met at the bottom of a mountain By a flyin', singin' writin' weirdo freak
He walked up and with one tremendous hand He grabbed the pickle away from the other guy He threw it, a hundred feet, straight up in the air And while the pickle was half way between going up and coming down
He took out his gun and put a three inch bullet hole Right through the long end of the pickle It started comin' back down He stuck out his foot He caught the pickle on his big toe And balancing the pickle on his big toe He reached his huge hand into his little pocket Pulled out a 10 foot ticket He borrowed my pen He wrote it up Then he rolled it up And stuffed it in the bullet hole in the middle of the pickle Took the pickle with the ticket And shoved it down my throat

Through sixty-six and seven they fought the Congo war With their fingers on their triggers, knee-deep in gore For days and nights they battled the Bantu to their knees They killed to earn their living and to help out the Congolese

Georgia patrol was making their rounds So he fired a shot just to flag em down A big bellied sheriff grabbed his gun and said "Why'd you do it?"
Well, they hung my brother before I could say The tracks he saw while on his way To Andy's house and back that night were mine And his cheatin' wife had never left town That's one body that'll never be found You see little sister don't miss when she aims her gun

The legends worded in the ancient tribal hymn lie cradled in the seagull's call And all the promises they made are ground beneath the sadist's fall The poet and the wise man stand behind the gun, behind the gun And signal for the crack of dawn. Light the sun. Light the sun

And its down along the Bogside,thats where I long to be. Lyin in the dark with a Provo company, A comrade on me left and a comrade on me right, And a clip of ammunition for me little Armalite.

Any body mention Marty Robbins "Big Iron on His Hip"? One of my all time favorites.
… To the town of Agua Fria rode a stranger one fine day Hardly spoke to folks around him, didn't have too much to say No one dared to ask his business, no one dared to make a slip For the stranger there among them had a big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip … It was early in the morning when he rode into the town He came riding from the south side slowly lookin' all around He's an outlaw loose and running, came the whisper from each lip And he's here to do some business with the big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip … In this town there lived an outlaw by the name of Texas Red Many men had tried to take him and that many men were dead He was vicious and a killer though a youth of 24 And the notches on his pistol numbered one and 19 more One and 19 more … Now the stranger started talking, made it plain to folks around Was an Arizona ranger, wouldn't be too long in town He came here to take an outlaw back alive or maybe dead And he said it didn't matter he was after Texas Red After Texas Red … Wasn't long before the story was relayed to Texas Red But the outlaw didn't worry men that tried before were dead 20 men had tried to take him, 20 men had made a slip 21 would be the ranger with the big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip … The morning passed so quickly, it was time for them to meet It was 20 past 11 when they walked out in the street Folks were watching from the windows, everybody held their breath They knew this handsome ranger was about to meet his death About to meet his death … There was 40 feet between them when they stopped to make their play And the swiftness of the ranger is still talked about today Texas Red had not cleared leather 'fore a bullet fairly ripped And the ranger's aim was deadly with the big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip … It was over in a moment and the folks had gathered round There before them lay the body of the outlaw on the ground Oh, he might have went on living but he made one fatal slip When he tried to match the ranger with the big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip Big iron, big iron When he tried to match the ranger with the big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip

And now as I lie here,my body all holes. I think of the traitors who bargained and sold I wish that my rifle had given the same To the quislings who sold out The Patriot game.
