Who is the tall, dark stranger there? 
Maverick is the name
Ridin’ the trail to who knows where
Luck is his companion 
Gamblin’ is his game

Smooth as the handle on a gun 
Maverick is the name
Wild as the wind in Oregon
Blowin’ up a canyon, easier to tame

Riverboat, ring your bell 
Fare thee well, Annabel
Luck is the lady that he loves the best
Natchez to New Orleans 
Livin' on jacks and queens 
Maverick is a legend of the west

Riverboat, ring your bell 
Fare thee well, Annabel
Luck is the lady that he loves the best
Natchez to New Orleans 
Livin' on jacks and queens 
Maverick is a legend of the west
