Subject: RE: Origins: Bury Me Not on the Lone Prairie
My version (either Ed McCurdy or Cisco Houston, I think McCurdy) of No Use goes
...faithful and upright and true
But he turned to a hard-shootin' gunman
On account of a girl named Lou
He fell in with evil companions
The kind that are better off dead
When a gambler insulted her picture
He filled him full of lead.
