Dodge City Poem by Richard Jarboe

Dodge City is a furious place
Gunplay here is a serious case
And when the rent's too high for us to afford
What we like to do is shoot the landlord
If the landlord tries to run, then we chase
Dodge City is a curious place.

Boot Hill is a mile up the street
Wagons roll up there twelve times a week
And when we deal with the law in our little town
Sooner or later we shoot 'em all down
Dodge City is a lawless town.

It's hard to tell Dodge from LA,
Or any other town where there's hell to pay
As we step over bodies, they look about the same
In any other town with any other name,
And it ain't Dodge City to blame.
