Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In the heart of the old frontier, where the mountains touch the sky,
Rode a man named Arthur, with a twinkle in his eye.
With the Van der Linde gang, he roamed the open land,
Through trials and tribulations, with a gun in his hand.
From the snow-capped peaks of Ambarino, to the plains of West Elizabeth,
Arthur journeyed far and wide, seeking fortune and myth.
In the towns of Valentine and Saint Denis, he left his mark,
A legend in the making, with a story to embark.
(Chorus)
Oh, Arthur, with courage bold,
In the tales of the frontier, forever told.
Through the trials and the fears, he made his stand,
In the heart of the wild, he left his brand.
(Verse 2)
Through the bustling streets of Saint Denis, where the lights shine bright,
Arthur walked among the sinners, in the dead of night.
With every job and every heist, he risked life and limb,
For the sake of his family, for loyalty to him.
From the murky swamps of Lemoine, to the deserts of New Austin,
Arthur faced the trials of the wild, without pause or caution.
In the company of outlaws, he found camaraderie,
But beneath the surface, lay a truth he couldn't see.
(Bridge)
In the quiet of the night, by the campfire's gentle light,
Arthur pondered his path, and the wrongs he tried to right.
With the weight of his sins, and the memories he bore,
He longed for redemption, to settle the score.
(Verse 3)
As the days turned to dust, and the sun began to fade,
Arthur faced his destiny, in the choices that he made.
With the truth laid bare, and the darkness closing in,
He stood against the tide, with a weary yet hopeful grin.
From the banks of the Dakota River, to the peaks of Mount Hagen,
Arthur fought for his freedom, with a spirit unshaken.
But as the world changed around him, and the gang began to fray,
He knew that his time was coming, with the dawn of a new day.
(Outro)
So here's to Arthur Morgan, with his legend set in stone,
In the windswept plains and valleys, where his spirit has flown.
May his name be remembered, in the songs of the land,
For he was an outlaw with a heart, and a true frontier man.
