There was once a raid On a little Kansas town All the raiders were killed All except just one He lived to tell their story And to explain the reason why "We was seeking glory, We didn't mean to die" RLB

I'm an old west history buff ,so my wife and I went to visit Coffeyville Kansas this past summer to see where the Dalton Gang was wiped out while trying to rob two banks at one time. Just so they could make themselves more famous than the James Younger Gang.I guess they should have stayed at home that day.
