THE BALLAD OF ORVILLE MILLER

 

He came from the east, this man of the West,

A bounty hunter and killer, acknowledged the best;

But soon he would face the ultimate test -

The man called Orville Miller.

 

A tall, dark man who was fast and lean,

His eyes were flashing, his manner mean;

He was the evillest man you ever have seen -

The man called Orville Miller.

 

Throughout his life Jed Catlow he hated;

For a chance to kill him he waited and waited.

One to live, and one to die in a showdown was fated

For the man called Orville Miller.

 

Armed and deadly with a Winchester shotgun

In Hermosillo Jail bullets flew in the sun

But he lay dead at Catlow's feet when the shooting was done -

The man called Orville Miller.
