Lyrics
They say that he has been seen with Saint Jean, the desert flower of Socorro. Where the river runs through the Badlands, she belongs to one man, but was every Outlaw`s dream. It`s an Outlaw way staying one step ahead, and you know she`ll be ready to ride. Slippin' by the catchin' hands of time and fate, she`s every Outlaws pride.
And the sound of her laughter will hush the sorrow of the one whose love she keeps. Like a promise unbroken, tender words once spoken, now and Outlaw, an Outlaw Angel is she.
Together they ride, side by side, a silent prayer she repeats. Night is fallin' coyote callin', soon they`ll be safe in their retreat
And the sound of her laughter...
