So, this is kind of inconsequential, but I was listening to this song (probably for the 1,000th time) and one thing still bothers me:
Now, all those cowboys, out of their gold
Loved my uncle, God rest his soul
Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know
Taught me so well, I grabbed that gold
And I left his dead-ass layin' by the side of the road
What/how did his Uncle die?!? Did he kill him? Was he hurt in the shootout when they stole the gold? Old age? Anyone have any idea??
