Prescuit Arizona, is frontier history
Gold rush to the mountain’s, eighteen sixty-three
The palace restaurant & saloon, standing here today
Whisperin secerts from the past, to some who pass her way

Chours:

The ghost of captain Joesph walker,
Wanders through this land
That Tenneesse to rocky mountain Indian fightin man
Riding trails over mountains, California bound
Then back to Arizona, finding gold here in the ground
One hundred thirty years ago, just a hole, where
Mountain men and cowboys, still all come and go
History talks of valiant soul’s, who ventured west this far
Like Wyatt, doc, big nose Kate, yeh… you know who they are

Chorus:

The ghost of captain Joseph walker,
Wanders through this land
That Tennessee to rocky mountain Indian fightin man
Riding trails over mountains, California bound
Then back to Arizona, finding gold here in the ground
One hundred thirty years ago, just a hole, where
Mountain men and cowboys, still all come and go
History talks of valiant soul’s, who ventured west this far
Like Wyatt, doc, big nose Kate, yeh… you know who they are

Chorus:

The ghost of captain Joseph walker
Wanders through this land that
Tennessee to rocky mountain Indian fightin man
Riding trails over mountains California bound
Some folks say he’s out there still meandering around
Wyatt Earp and brother Morgan, passed through for a spell
Ole Virgil ran the saw mill, he was constable as well and
Long before that gun fight, near OK corral, well they

Hung out at the palace, for fun and raising, well…...the
Modern town of Prescuit, emerged from history
World famous whiskey row, the court house in the trees
The palace restaurant and saloon, alive and well today
“the palace” still the place to be when you’re out Prescuit way
In nine-teen hundred she burned down
The local history shows
The locals saved the Brunswick bar
And fire took whiskey row
In nine-teen one they rebuilt
Improved in every way now
And that fancy antique bar
Makes history every day

Chorus:

The palace here on whiskey row
Is the still the place to be, you
Can see it like it was way back then
In western history when miners
Cowboys Indians all trying to survive
Arizona territory where they all lived and died
Arizona territory where they all lived and died
