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

He actually did a sequel series later: This is a musical montage from the pilot episode of "Bret Maverick". It was a 1980s television series with James Garner reprising his Maverick role from the 1950s. The song was written and performed by the late great Ed Bruce
Maverick is one of my all time favorite shows.....RIP Bret.
Some words of wisdom from Bret Maverick's "old pappy":
Bret Maverick: As my old pappy used to say, work is fine for killin' time, but it's a shaky way to make a living.
Bret Maverick: As my old pappy used to say, "Son, stay clear of weddings because one of them is liable to be your own."
Bret Maverick: As my old pappy used to say, a man does what he has to do - if he can't get out of it.
Bret: My Pappy always said, "A coward dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies but one." A thousand to one is pretty good odds.
Bret Maverick: As my old pappy used to say, if at first you don't succeed, try something else.
Bret Maverick: Cole, as my old pappy always taught me, the only time you ever quit when you're winnin' is after you've won it all.
