It's the ten duel commandments
It's the ten duel commandments
Number one
The challenge demand satisfaction
If they apologize no need for further action
Number two
If they don't grab a friend that's your second
Your Lieutenant when there's reckoning to be reckoned
Number three
Have your seconds meet face to face
Negotiate a peace
Or negotiate a time and place
This is commonplace 'specially 'tween recruits
Most disputes die and no one shoots
Number four
If they don't reach a peace that's alright
Time to get some pistols and a doctor on site
You pay him in advance you treat him with civility
You have him turn around so he can have deniability
Five
Duel before the sun is in the sky
Pick a place to die where it's high and dry
Number six
Leave a note for your next of kin
Tell 'em where you been
Pray that Hell or Heaven let's you in
Seven
Confess your sins
Ready for the moment of adrenaline
When you finally face your opponent
Number eight
Your last chance to negotiate
Send in your seconds
See if they can set the record straight
Alexander
Aaron Burr Sir
Can we agree that duels are dumb and immature
Sure
But your man has to answer for his words Burr
With his life
We both know that's absurd Sir
Hang on how many men died because Lee was inexperienced and ruinous
Okay so we're doing this
Number nine
Look him in the eye aim no higher
Summon all the courage you require
Then count
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Number ten paces fire
