thank you, people down yonder who provided song titles and meanings. this character is so full of nuance and subtlety; i thought any major deadwood geek (i.e. me) might gobble it up for the sake of contrast.

dear person down yonder who ordered that i watch his fave old westerns, my, you're pushy. and kinda aggro. what's that about? i'd just said westerns weren't really my deal. : )

@Autocris10 The song is called "The Unfortunate Lad". It's a traditional English folk song whose melody is the same as another English song called Spanish Ladies. There's a "traditional" (quotation marks because it was derived from the English song) American version known as The Streets of Laredo (a.k.a Cowboy's Lament) that Johnny Cash does a great version of, and another called the St. James Infirmary Blues which is a Bourbon Street classic in N.O

Does anyone know what song this is?

deadwood the themepark, like dollywood only not crappy. take a walk down maine st and visit the world famous gym saloon for some refreshment, or try your luck inside the luxurious bella union. prospect for untold riches in the deadwood hills and pan for gold in catfish creek. shoppers can visit bulloch and star for souvenirs and after a long day e.b farnumbs hotel awaits your every need. you may get shot, but thats half the fun ya loopy cunts.

The real Al Swearengen would laugh his ass off at this depiction...Swearengen died alone, penniless in a box car at a railroad. Thank God HBO gave him some humanity.
