letra de the saga of diamondfield jack - frank fara
(verse 1)
john sparks and andrew herald
cattlemen by name
vowed to keep all sheepmen from grazing on their range
they drew a line at goose creek
hired time and field jack
to ride the line and turn any
sheep men back
now diamondfield was a liar
and a braggart with a gun
but he didn’t k!ll two sheep
beneath the february sun
but folks there told the sheriff
about his ever-boastin’ tongue
and the saga of old diamondfield
had just begun
(chorus)
ride, diamondfield
ride, boy, ride
people think you shot ‘em, and so you gotta hide
ride, diamondfield
ride, boy, ride
ride on down through jackpot and lay low for a time
(verse 2)
one year of freedom, and diamondfield was back
at the cassia county courthouse
with a jury that was stacked
big politics and money
and circumstantial fact
made first-degree murder their antic-p-ted act
(chorus)
ride, diamondfield
ride, boy, ride
from bronze ranch to the boars nest on your controversial ride
ride, diamondfield
ride, boy, ride
the jury says it’s possible, so
ride, boy, ride
(verse 3)
the gallows were erected
but the execution stayed
saved by your attorney
and his late appeals that day
they centered on your famous ride
and the route they say you rode
50 miles and 5 hours through desert
sage and snow
six long years in prison
for a crime he didn’t do
till pardoned by the governor
in the year of 19’2
confession by a cattleman
finally cleared his name
but the code of western justice
would never shine the same
(chorus)
so ride, diamondfield
ride, boy, ride
your life’s already legend
as your celebrated ride
(chorus)
ride, diamondfield
ride, boy, ride
you’ll always be remembered
for your history makin’ ride
(outro)
ride, diamondfield
ride, boy, ride
people think you shot ‘em, and so you gotta hide
ride, diamondfield
ride, boy, ride
(fade out)
you’ll always be remembered
for your history makin’ ride
