Who was the tall dark stranger there
Maverick is the name
Riding the trail to who knows where
Luck is his companion
Traveling is his game
Smooth as the handle on a gun.
Maverick is the name.
Wild as the wind in Oregon,
Blowin’ up a canyon,
Easier to tame.
Riverboat, ring your bell,
Fare thee well, Annabel.
Luck is the lady that he loves the best.
Natchez to New Orleans
Livin on jacks and queens
Maverick is a legend of the west.
Bret, Bart, and beau?
I used to sing “livin on franks and beans” until I found out it was jacks and queens.
