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 And when he would finish We'd ask the old cowboy To tell 'em again You could almost hear Those prairie winds blowing His saddle a creakin' Beneath 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 telling you lies But to all of us kids Cowboy Bill was a hero Just as true As the blue texas sky. 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 He looked back just in time To see a horse stumble The captain went down And Bill pulled up on his reigns Through a flurry of bullets He rescued the captain They rode for the sunset Just the story remains And the grown-ups would tell us You boys keep your distance That old man's just telling you lies But to all of us kids Cowboy Bill was a hero Just as true As the blue texas sky. Well I still remember The day that it happened We waited and we waited But Bill never showed The folks at the feed store Said they hadn't seen him So we set out for his place Down on old grist mill road And we cried when we found him Lying there with his memories The old trunk wide open Things scattered about He was clutching a badge That said Texas Rangers And an old yellow letter Said "Texas is Proud" And the grown-ups that told us You boys keep your distance That old man's just telling you lies Now... they're all saying Cowboy Bill was a hero Just as true As the blue texas sky. Just as true As the blue texas sky.
