Letra de Cowboy Bill

[Verso 1]
He told a good story, and all 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 them again

[Verso 2]
An' 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

[Coro]
And the grown-ups would tell us, you boys keep your distance
That old man's just tellin' you lies
But to all us kids, Cowboy Bill was a hero
Just as true, as his blue Texas skies

[Verso 3]
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 to cover
With thirty banditos headed their way

[Verso 4]
And 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

[Coro]
And the grown-ups would tell us, you boys keep your distance
That old man's just tellin' you lies
But to all us kids, Cowboy Bill was a hero
Just as true, as his blue Texas skies

[Verso 5]
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

[Verso 6]
And we cried when we found him lyin' there with his memories
The old trunk wide open, things scattered about
An' he was clutchin' a badge, that said Texas Ranger
And an old yeller letter, said 'Texas Is Proud'

[Coro]
And the grown-ups that told us, you boys keep your distance
That old man's just telling you lies
Now, they're all sayin', that Cowboy Bill was a hero
Just as true, as his blue Texas skies

[Conclusi�n]
Just as true, as his blue Texas skies
