A long time ago in the
wild wild west
There lived a musician
the very best

He traveled by horse,
he caused quite a fuss
He stood six feet tall
and his name was Gus

Now one day this fella
rode into town
And began to play
the strangest sound

The legend says
he was in the saloon
When he first conduct-
ed his now famous tune
He walked in bar,
ordered some rum,
Then shortly
thereafter banged on
his steel drum.

Well, this was a noise
these folks didn't
know.
When asked, Gus said
it was called calypso

(See, Gus used to have
a pal named Thomas
Who lived out in the
western Bahamas.
Thomas taught Gus
about how to play
In exchange for a
horse and eight bails
of hay.)

In the back of the
room was a man known
as Jack.
His mustache was thick
and his heart was
black.

While Gus played the
drum, Jack played
poker
But thought to himself
"who is this joker?"

Now Jack may not have
known right from wrong
But one thing's for
sure,
he hated that song
He put his hand on his
gun and his feet on
the floor,
Screamed "That's all
I can stands, I can't
stands no more!"
Jack cocked his six
shooter and aimed for
the head
That son of a bitch
really wanted Gus dead
Thankfully though,
our hero was quick
As he thrusted at Jack
his left drum stick
The throw knocked
Jack's gun right out
of his hand
And soon he proclaimed
"Gus, you're a hell of
a man!"
He was so impressed
he reached under the
bar
And pulled out his
very own six-stringed
guitar!

So what you hear now,
though it may seem
ample
Is merely an itty
bitty wee little
sample
Of the music produced
by that now famous duo
(Backed by a band
they met in Toledo)

If you're wondering
why you've never heard
these boys before
It's because they
played when there was
no record store

My only hope is that
this song brings you
joy
And memorance of Gus,
the Calypso Cowboy!
