Wish I was, a wild west hero.
Sometimes I look up high
And then I think there might,
Just be a better life
Away from all we know
That's where I wanna go
Out on the wild side,
And I wish I was
Oh-oh-oh-oh, a wild west hero.
Ride the range all the day,
Till the first fading light
Be with my western girl
Round the fire oh so bright
I'd be the Indians' friend
Let them live to be free
Ridin' into the sunset
I wish I could be.
I'd ride the desert sands
And through the prairie lands,
Tryin' to do what's right,
The folks would come to me,
They'd say we need you here.
I'd stay there for the night,
Oh I wish I was
Oh-oh-oh-oh, a wild west hero
Ride the range all the day,
Till the first fading light
Be with my western girl
Round the fire oh so bright
I'd be the Indians' friend
Let them live to be free
Ridin' into the sunset
I wish I could be.
Oh I wish I was
Oh-oh-oh-oh, a wild west hero
I wish I was
Oh-oh-oh-oh, a wild west hero
Oh I wish I was
Oh-oh-oh-oh, a wild west hero
Wish I was
Oh-oh-oh-oh, a wild west hero
Wish I was, oh-oh-oh-oh, a wild west hero
