Does this song have anything to do with an old west bounty hunter I forgot his name but I know he was a black guy and he was after an escapee (outlaw) who has notches on his gun belt and one day the hunter went into town and his friend saw the guy going into a store,but the outlaw ran out and tried to kill the hunter and the hunter chased him down and lept off his horse and pulled a winchester rifle (a big iron?) and shot the outlaw,and as he approached the outlaw he leaned down and the outlaw gave him his guns and belt.This song sort of reminded me of this story and I'm wondering if the song is related to this event.

@MickeyN1 , you may be thinking of Bass Reeves, but he was a lawman.
