When he was 18 he stole a copy of Townes Van Zandt: Live and Obscure from a friend

Pearl Handled Pistol - Jeffrey Foucault
as recorded on “Stripping Cane” album
[Verse 1]
A
That old one-trick pony
Sat down in the dust
He pawed the air
The gunshots died away
F#m
The sun was red as rust … red as rust
A
It was red as rust
[Verse 2]
A
General G.A. Custer
He was a mighty handsome man
He loved dogs and children
F#m
He loved the military band … military band
A
The military band
[Chorus 1]
B7
Well the vaudeville tramps and churchbell tollers
D
Harlequins and holy rollers
A F#m
Lay their nickel down to raise the dead
B7 D
With a tune sung low and wistful and a pearl handled
A F#m
pistol... and a mirror hung up above the bed
A
Hung up above the bed
[Verse 3]
A
Buffalo Bill he said good-bye to the boys
Said they're spilling blood and taking scalps
And making a joyful noise
F#m
Make a joyful noise
A
Makin joyful noise
[Verse 4]
A
He said I'm off to fight the Indians
And take a little off the top
When I get home we'll all dress up
F#m
And ride around the old big top … the old big top
A
Around the old big top
[Chorus 1]
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
A
Sitting Bull was sitting
In his cabin all alone
And the cops they come to fetch him out
F#m
They could not leave him alone … leave him alone
A
Just leave him alone
[Verse 6]
A
That old one-trick pony
He sat down in the dust
And he danced for the ghost of Sitting Bull
F#m
Because baby the show must go on
A
The show must go on
F#m
show must go on
A
The show must go on
