He rode up on a winter day
Steam risin´ off a streak-faced bay
He said, "You probably know my name
If you don´t, it´s Arkansas Dave"

He talked of fifteen years ago
And how he got the bay he rode
Said he killed a man in Ohio
First man he killed, first horse he stole

It was a long road for Arkansas Dave
He shot and left him where he lay
Said he´d never forget that winter day
He rode off on a streak-faced bay

I stood up and I shook his hand
Told no one that I knew this man
Started thinking of a plan
´Bout how I´d deal him his last hand

It didn´t take him long to come unwound
He jumped up and gunned two men down
Ran outside to leave the town

But ol´ bay was nowhere to be found

I hid out with my .44
And when he walked back through the door
I shot ´til I could shoot no more
And Dave Rudabaugh fell to the floor

It was the end of the road for Arkansas Dave
I shot and left him where he lay
I´ll never forget that winter day
I rode off on the streak-faced bay

No, I´ll never forget that winter day
I rode home on daddy´s streak-faced bay
