telling an associate. They didn't realize I was around the
corner!"
Alex blushed. Cordell looked at her and then burst out laughing.
"We'll certainly come!" he agreed.
"Good!" William managed. "I think the relationship
is distant enough that it won't present any problem when the time
comes!"
"William!" his wife snapped, "They might not even
like each other, or it may be two girls or two boys." Her
husband looked at her then to the others, and everybody went
"Naaaw!" and burst into laughter.
When they finally got to C.D.'s the place was packed! Cordell
went to the leader of the band and spoke to him. The man grinned
and nodded. "Know it well!" he announced. When Cordell
got back to the table the man tapped his microphone. "Ladies
and gentlemen!" he said, "This is dedicated to the hero
in our midst from yesterday, and to all the other law enforcement
personnel present. After we get through it join us for the second
run. He began to sing and the band joined in.

1. If you're on
the run you'd better hide, son,
There's a man who's comin' and he's got a gun!
There's no place to hide, there's no place to run.
The US Marshall's gonna get you, son!
2. His name is
Morgan he's a US Marshall,
To right and justice he's kind of partial.
If he finds you you'd better not fight,
For if you do it will end your flight.
(Chorus)
His name is Morgan, he's a US Marshall,
to right and justice he's kind of partial.
If you're good he's gonna shake your hand,
If you're not, he's gonna cuff ya, man!
4. If you're on
the run you'd better watch it son,
For the US Marshall's gonna end your run!
(Repeat Chorus To End.)
