Port Stockton
Everyone in Trinidad,Colorado wondered who this new Texan was
They didn't have to wonder long, he again pulled out a gun
Shot a man now he's on the run
Him and brother Ike took up new ideas
They sat down in the animas valley
They formed a gang, and cattle they would reign
With shootouts and hangings
They pretended to be cattlemen that prospered
But the only thing they prospered at was thieving
They stole so much cattle they opened a business
To sell beef to those they had been robbing
This texan became town marshal
While thriving stealing the neighbours' cows
Him and the gang held durango in their hands
And weren't afraid to shoot any man down
Port Stockton
With his average height and average build
And sandy moustache and rugged ways
He wooed a minister's daughter to marry him
She bore him Ellen, Mary Jane and Essie May
Port Stockton
4th of January '81
Everyone had enough of his ways
They stood outside his house,blatantly in view
When Port opened the door they blew him away
Port Stockton
Port Stockton
They didn't have to wonder long, he again pulled out a gun
Shot a man now he's on the run
Him and brother Ike took up new ideas
They sat down in the animas valley
They formed a gang, and cattle they would reign
With shootouts and hangings
They pretended to be cattlemen that prospered
But the only thing they prospered at was thieving
They stole so much cattle they opened a business
To sell beef to those they had been robbing
This texan became town marshal
While thriving stealing the neighbours' cows
Him and the gang held durango in their hands
And weren't afraid to shoot any man down
Port Stockton
With his average height and average build
And sandy moustache and rugged ways
He wooed a minister's daughter to marry him
She bore him Ellen, Mary Jane and Essie May
Port Stockton
4th of January '81
Everyone had enough of his ways
They stood outside his house,blatantly in view
When Port opened the door they blew him away
Port Stockton
Port Stockton
