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