get it down while you can.

Because you know

when your number's up, you go.

Yes you know when

your number's up, you go go go.

Yes you know when your number's up,

you go.

Yo ho ho ho.

You know when your number's up,

you go.

Thank you.

Thank you.

This should be easy for a dancer.

Well, it's not much further.

Tomorrow, we'll get an early start.

Then I'd better get some sleep.

Isn't he the nicest man?

And a gentleman.

You dance very well.

Thank you.

Very beautiful.

Thank you.

Sleep on it.

There you go.

There you go.

Yes you know when your number's up,

you go.

Drink your whiskey. Drink your rum.

Take your chances...

Yes you know when your number's up,

you go.

How dare you come in here.

Get out.

Ayyyy.

Hey, it's a wagon.

Ohh.

Lucy-Ann.

Lucy-Ann, are you all right?

A monster.

Watch out.

All right, now. All of you, get out.

Why, you mealy-mouthed

You heard what he said.

Now a lot of yougit.

Let's go.

You did right, senorita..

Don't cry to me.

Keep moving.

Jamie.

We was lucky.

We could have been murdered in our sleep.

And I will love you.

If you love me.

I'll bring you flowers from the forest.

Cherries from the tree.

And I'd be good to you.

If you were good to me.

As good as gold from the Sun.

Silver fishes from the sea.

And I would make for you a house.

Wherever you should make your bed.

Whichever road should lie ahead

I'll be right there with you.

And ev'ry dream I've ever dreamed.

And ev'ry sweet thought in my head.

And all the things I've never said.

These I will share with you.

And if the sky should ever break.

And take the sunshine from my days.

And if our paths should ever stray.

And you're not here with me.

Then ev'ry morning as I wake,

you'll find me sitting by the bay.

I'll while each lonely hour away.

Till you're back here with me.

And I will love you.

If you love me.

I'll bring you flowers from the forest.

Cherries from the tree.

And I'd be good to you.

If you were good to me.

Hurry.

Hurry.

Come on. Hurry.

What's all the fuss about?

Hey hey.

Yaw.

Yaw.

Here it is.

Get out the lariat.

We have to make a rope ladder.

Well, Jamie. You knew

about the treasure the whole time.

I kept the secret, Peg.

Well, I'm proud of you.

Keeping a secret is almost as hard

as not telling a lie.

But it isn't a secret anymore, Peg.

Huh?

- Listen.

Ton of gold.

Ton of gold. 99 West. 25 North.

Box canyon. Under bridge.

Scalawag.

Why don't you try counting sheep?

Couldn't I go down?

Take a look around.

And come right up again?

Morning's soon enough.

Good night.

Hey.

Jamie.

Good night, Peg.

Hmm.

Amigo, you're a good friend.

I've always lived my life by the Good Book.

Sleep well.

You was mighty slow getting here.

The gold in that canyon?

Going down to get it.

Now.

Going down.

Watch it, boy.

Shhh.

It took us long enough get here.

Here's something.

Get that gold and be out of here

before they wake up.

We should've killed them all.

Dragoons.

Gold. Here come gold.

You got a leaky mouth.

Hey.

It's the boy.

Let's get him.

What'll we do, Peg? What do we do?

Watch the ladder.

- Yeah.

You'll never get the gold, Mr. Stewart.

You got the drop on me, Jamie.

I'm proud of you.

You did it quicker

than a cat can lick his ears.

You lied to me.

Well, just kind of.

Like trying to keep a secret, Jamie?

Same as you.

You lied to all of us.

Of course, the first time's the hardest.

Oh, I won't hold it against you, Jamie.

I know just how you feel.

You go right ahead.

Go right ahead.

Pull the trigger.

Hey, Peg, what're you doing?

Hey. There he goes.

What'd you do that for?

You want them all down on top of us?

Hey, he's in there. Let's get him.

What?

He ain't gonna hurt you none.

Hey, come back here, jackass.

Get the boy.

Did you see him?

No. But I think I saw

somebody go by on a donkey.

I'm sick of this boy.

Let's get the gold.

Help yourself.

I better get back on top.

Well, where is it?

Maybe Drake will catch you

hauling gold up this ladder.

Aragon looking down with a pistol.

We better wait.

- I'm sick of waiting.

And we're sick of being tied to your limp.

Tell us where the gold's hid, Peg.

We'll let Aragon do the digging for us.

Stay here till we get the gold.

Make yourself comfortable.

But don't hurt the boy.

Hey, what you doing?

One of these days.

I found the gold.

I found where it's buried.

Come on.

Stay here. Watch the ladder.

We were robbed.

Oh, where's the gold?

Hey, it's getting complicated.

Must've woke up early and give us a slip.

That scalawag's got no sense at all.

Aw, don't worry.

He's probably off exploring somewhere.

You just go treasure hunting.

I'll find him.

- Thank you, Mr. Stewart.

What now, senor?

Look out for banditos.

Don't worry.

You look in there.

Sandy, the gold.

Yeah.

Where is he?

He must've grown wings

and flew outta here.

I don't want the boy. I want the gold.

Tone it down.

Don't worry. You'll get that gold.

Move it.

- We got to control that ladder.

Move.

If possible.

Ya think?

Climb up and force it out of Luigi.

He's up there, Peg.

- You can handle him.

He's a big fella.

Use your knife.

Jamie.

Jamie.

Jamie.

Jamie.

I found it.

Si.

Here it is.

Ben.

Here's your money.

Much obliged.

We are here. We were walking right over it.

I found one too.

Hey, I got another one.

There's got to be more here.

Come.

Hey, Lucy-Ann.

Stay there.

We'll bring it to you.

Now.

Daniel Aragon.

Jamie.

Mr. Fly Speck is lifting up the ladder.

Jamie, are you all right?

Yes.

But Peg's not with us.

Pegs with Mr. Velvet and the others.

Behind that ledge.

Get that kid.

Seor Stewart.

Your friend may control the ladder.

He'll lower it for the gold.

Come on.

Get him when he lets down the ladder?

Stay back.

Rooster.

You get over there

and get that ammunition belt.

I'll cover you.

Hey-hey.

Boy.

And you're gonna be

worth your weight in gold, little boy.

Come to Velvet, little boy.

Baa.

Where is he?

I'll trade him for the gold.

All of it.

Ain't you a might greedy?

Yeah, well,

I'll let you fill your pockets.

You'll find I got big pockets.

Get him.

- Yeah, you make the deal first.

Aragon.

Hold your fire.

Where is Jamie?

We got him.

You got the gold.

We'll make a swap.

Better throw down your gun.

You're hang for this.

Fly Speck.

- Yeah?

Throw down the ladder.

Here I go. Wee.

Well, now you can get the boy.

Hey, who you shooting?

There ain't enough gold for both of us.

There never was.

Eh.

Hey. Hey.

What's going on down there?

Hi-ya.

Yaw-sa.

Ow.

Jamie.

Hey, what's going on down there?

Ahhhhhh.

The ladder.

We want that gold.

But we're only going to take two.

I think you could do it now.

Hold him there, Jamie.

Throw down the ladder.

We'll make a deal.

We've got the gold now.

Throw it down.

But if it's all right with you,

I'll lay it down--

Ahhhhhh.

What are we going to do?

How do we get out?

If we had a balloon.

A hot air balloon.
