Arthur Morgan is the lead outlaw in Rockstar Games' Red Dead Redemption 2, released in 2018 and voiced by Roger Clark. Bad to the Bone is a 1982 blues-rock track by George Thorogood and the Destroyers, long associated with rebellious screen characters. This meme version mashes the two ideas together, giving Morgan an anthem that fits his rough reputation. Shared as a short soundboard clip on gaming and meme pages, it survives because the pairing is instant: one rough voice, one famous refrain, and a character everyone recognizes as trouble.
