All Ashore that's Going Ashore

Chuck hurried to the docks 

Bursting with news 

"Boss, Ewell's in jail. 

What'er we to do? 

We have to break him out!"

William sneered 

Hopping off his horse. 

"The plan worked.

Ewell's got the sheriff 

He'll mess his head 

And keep him busy. 

I'll miss the show 

What a pity!"

The Hutch bellowed loud 

William straightened his black hat 

Chuck and Tim stood proud 

As the Roberts stepped off the boat 

 Along with some of their crew. 

The men shook hands 

Exchanging Howdys 

It was a new place for them 

They'd never been to BG County.

They'd never been to BG County

"That's a fine lookin' boat. 

The Liberty Belle. 

Who owns it?" 

Ray Roberts asked. 

William shrugged 

"A man named Denver 

He's out of town. 

His son is there 

With a skeleton crew."

Ray took a stroll 

 Over to the Liberty Belle, 

William and Roy watched 

the boxes marked with C 

loaded onto the wagon. 

Chuck brought two horses 

For the brother's journey.

"How long you plan on staying?" 

William asked. 

"Not long. 

Till noon tomorrow 

 Or half-past."


The crew got back onboard 

As they were instructed. 

The Roberts followed William and Chuck 

together towards the warehouse, 

To complete the deal 

Which had been struck.
