文本歌词

作词 : Bastian, Berghoff
He told a good story
and all of us kids listened
＇Bout his life on the border
and the way it was then
And we all believed him
and when he would finish
We＇d ask the old cowboy
to tell ＇em again
You could almost hear
those prairie winds blowin＇
His saddle a creakin＇
＇neath his old faded jeans
You could taste the dry dust
from the trail he was ridin＇
As he sat there and painted
those west Texas scenes
And the grown-ups would tell us
You boys keep your distance,
that old man＇s just tellin＇ you lies
But to all of us kids
Cowboy Bill was a hero
Just as true as his blue Texas skies
He told of a time
when he rode with the Rangers
Down on the pecos
and he saved the day
Outnumbered by plenty,
they were almost too cover
With thirty banditos headed their way
He looked back just in time
to see a horse stumble
The captain went down
and Bill pulled up on his rains
And through a flurry of bullets
he rescued the captain
And they rode for a sunset,
just the story remains
And the grown-ups would tell us
You boys keep your distance,
that old man＇s just tellin＇ you lies
But to all of us kids
Cowboy Bill was a hero
Just as true as his blue Texas skies
Well I still remember the day
that it happened
We waited and we waited
but Bill never showed
And the folks at the feed store
said they hadn＇t seen him
So we set out for his place
down Old Grist Mill Road
And we cried when we found him
lying there with his mem＇ries
The old trunk wide open,
things scattered about
He was clutchin＇ a badge
that said Texas Ranger
And an old ＂yeller＂ letter
said Texas Is Proud
And those grownups who told us
you boys keep your distance
that ol＇ man＇s just telling you lies
now there all saying
Cowboy Bull was a hero
just as true as his blue texas skies
Just as true as his blue Texas skies
