Скачать или смотреть A Ballad of Henry Starr – Wild West Outlaw, Writer & Bank Robber!

This original ballad tells the incredible true story of Henry Starr—a notorious outlaw, nephew to Belle Starr, and one of the last great bank robbers of the Wild West. From his Cherokee Nation roots to his dramatic final act in Harrison, Arkansas, Henry’s life was a whirlwind of legend, lawlessness, and lost dreams. Not just an outlaw, he was a writer and even an actor, turning his own story into history before fate caught up with him.

LYRICS:
(Verse 1)
In Cherokee land, 'neath a sky so wide and blue,
Henry Starr was born, wild spirit, dreams anew.
Son of Mary Scott, George his daddy's name,
Nephew to Belle Starr, a lineage touched by flame.
In outlaw hideouts, his childhood days did pass,
With highwaymen and villains, on the wicked path, alas.

(Chorus)
Henry Starr, his name rings out, on the wind it still does moan,
From the Indian Territory to Arkansas, always on his own.
He never sought trouble, but trouble found his way,
Revolver shots a-ringin', banks fell to his sway.

(Verse 2)
When his daddy passed on, his mother struggled, three children in her care,
New stepfather, Walker, Henry couldn't bear.
He left for the ranch, a cowboy he yearned to be,
But fate had a different story, for all the world to see.
First arrest, for spirits brought into the land,
Then false accusations, he couldn't understand.
Henry thought, "If they're gonna blame me, it's true,
I might as well earn my keep, robbin' banks, me and my crew!"

(Chorus)
Henry Starr, his name rings out, on the wind it still does moan,
From the Indian Territory to Arkansas, always on his own.
He never sought trouble, but trouble found his way,
Revolver shots a-ringin', banks fell to his sway.

(Verse 3)
Tried for Wilson's murder, Judge Parker passed the decree,
Twice condemned to hang, but life would set him free.
Pardoned by the President, once more he walked the ground,
Formed a notorious gang, terrorizing all around.
A bounty on his head, five thousand dollars bright,
But Henry Starr was swift, vanishin' into the night.

(Bridge)
He wrote his own story, "Thrilling Events," while locked away in jail,
Even became an actor, in "A Debtor to the Law," he set sail.
Playing himself on screen, under the camera's gaze,
But an outlaw's soul, knows no peaceful, settled days.

(Chorus)
Henry Starr, his name rings out, on the wind it still does moan,
From the Indian Territory to Arkansas, always on his own.
He never sought trouble, but trouble found his way,
Revolver shots a-ringin', banks fell to his sway.

(Outro)
In Harrison, Arkansas, his last bank stood that day,
The bank president, Myers, shot him down, put him away.
Dewey Cemetery, there he lies, beneath the earth so deep,
The legend of Henry Starr, a promise history will keep.
