The Dark Ballad of Laughing Sam Carey – Ghost of the Hole-in-the-Wall
LYRICS:
(Verse 1)
In the hills of Wyoming, where the wild winds wail,
Rides a shadow named Sam Carey, down that lonesome trail.
With a laugh like a rattler, sharp and full of sin,
He’s the ghost of the Hole-in-the-Wall, where outlaws begin.
(Chorus)
Oh, Laughing Sam Carey, with a grin cold as stone,
Riding through the canyon where the devil’s made his home.
No lawman could catch him, no jail could hold him tight,
Sam’s laugh still echoes in the Wyoming night.
(Verse 2)
As a boy, he ran with Cassidy, fetching bullets and rye,
Learned the ways of the Wild Bunch under a blood-red sky.
With Otto Chenoworth’s gang, he rode till they fell apart,
But the Hole-in-the-Wall kept callin’ to his outlaw heart.
(Chorus)
Oh, Laughing Sam Carey, with a grin cold as stone,
Riding through the canyon where the devil’s made his home.
No lawman could catch him, no jail could hold him tight,
Sam’s laugh still echoes in the Wyoming night.
(Verse 3)
He danced with Black Jack Ketchum, robbed the stage and train,
Left a trail of fear and whispers, like a storm across the plain.
By nineteen hundred and three, the gang was dead or gone,
But Sam just faded like the dusk, his legend lingers on.
(Bridge)
Some say he sold his soul to ride forever free,
A ghost in that old pass, where no man oughta be.
You hear his laugh at twilight, when the shadows start to creep,
A warning to the livin’ where the outlaws’ secrets sleep.
(Chorus)
Oh, Laughing Sam Carey, with a grin cold as stone,
Riding through the canyon where the devil’s made his home.
No lawman could catch him, no jail could hold him tight,
Sam’s laugh still echoes in the Wyoming night.
(Verse 4)
Old Roy O’Dell went searchin’, tried to track Sam’s name,
Found a photo and a story, but he never was the same.
His journal told of laughter, from the rocks it seemed to rise,
Said, “Sam’s still here a-ridin’, with them fire-lit eyes.”
(Chorus)
Oh, Laughing Sam Carey, with a grin cold as stone,
Riding through the canyon where the devil’s made his home.
No lawman could catch him, no jail could hold him tight,
Sam’s laugh still echoes in the Wyoming night.
(Outro)
So if you’re in that lonesome pass, when the moon is hangin’ low,
And you hear a laugh like thunder, it’s time for you to go.
For Laughing Sam Carey’s watchin’, from the shadows of the fight,
His ghost still guards the Hole-in-the-Wall in the Wyoming night.
