Cowboy Bill

Album:Garth Brooks
Garth Brooks-Cowboy Bill

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

[02:27.27]And the grown-ups would tell us
[01:03.87]You boys keep your distance,
[01:07.09]that old man＇s just tellin＇ you lies
[01:12.85]
[01:13.99]But to all of us kids
[01:17.01]Cowboy Bill was a hero
[01:20.35]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
[02:25.58]
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
