Tulsa Jack: The Outlaw’s Lament – Oklahoma Ballad of Guns & Glory
LYRICS:
(Verse 1)
Beneath a sky of endless stars, where tumbleweeds run wild,
Lived Tulsa Jack, a dreamer bold, a restless, yearning child.
He rode the plains of Kansas dust, where trails would twist and fade,
In Oklahoma’s heartland, his legend was first made.
(Verse 2)
Born to a life of hardship, where hope was hard to keep,
He saw his father’s farm foreclosed, his mother’s tears run deep.
So Jack turned to the open road, with fire in his soul,
To chase a life of freedom, though the cost would take its toll.
(Verse 3)
With Bill Doolin by his side, their bond was forged in flame,
A brotherhood of outlaws, they carved a reckless name.
They planned to rob that southbound train, where the whistle’s lonesome cry,
Lit their path with danger, beneath a moonlit sky.
(Chorus)
Oh, Tulsa Jack, with a prairie blaze,
Riding hard through those lawless days.
With a pistol drawn and dreams too vast,
You chose a life where shadows cast.
But oh, how the darkness falls,
When you hear the lawman’s calls,
For every coin that shines so bright,
There’s a debt to pay in the dead of night.
(Verse 4)
That April night, the train rolled slow, its cargo ripe to claim,
With thunder in their hearts, they stormed, no thought of fear or shame.
“Hands up, we’re taking all!” the outlaws’ voices roared,
But eyes of steel and badge of law were waiting at the door.
(Verse 5)
As bullets sang like desert winds, a marshal’s shot rang true,
In a hideout deep in Oklahoma, Jack’s fate was breaking through.
He stood unbowed, with Doolin near, their spirits fierce and tall,
But death had drawn its line in dust, to claim them one and all.
(Chorus)
Oh, Tulsa Jack, with a prairie blaze,
Riding hard through those lawless days.
With a pistol drawn and dreams too vast,
You chose a life where shadows cast.
But oh, how the darkness falls,
When you hear the lawman’s calls,
For every coin that shines so bright,
There’s a debt to pay in the dead of night.
(Verse 6)
Oh, Tulsa Jack, your tale won’t fade,
Through the prairie winds and twilight shade.
In every cowboy’s whispered song, his spirit rides the sky.
From the plains of old Oklahoma to horizons far and wide,
A legend born of grit and flame, where wild hearts still abide.
(Outro)
Where the prairie winds still call and sing,
Tulsa Jack’s forever flame will burn eternal spring.
