《Ballad Of Will Rogers》歌词

[00:00:00] Ballad Of Will Rogers - Chris Ledoux

[00:00:08] He was born and raised in oklahoma

[00:00:13] His blood lines were white and cherokee

[00:00:18] His daddy owned a ranch outside of clairmore

[00:00:22] Where he learned to ride before the age of three

[00:00:27] Now young will rogers was a cowboy

[00:00:32] And he practiced with his rope 'most everyday

[00:00:36] Well he'd ride around the barn or across the prairie

[00:00:40] And throw a loop at anything that came his way

[00:00:46] Yes will rogers was a country boy

[00:00:51] One of oklahoma's favorite sons

[00:00:55] The nation claimed him as their pride and joy

[00:00:59] But his roots were deep in Oklahoma side

[00:01:07] Before too long he had his fill of schooling

[00:01:11] At eighteen years he got the urge to roam

[00:01:16] A whole great big world was out there waiting

[00:01:20] So he saddled up and lit out on his own

[00:01:25] He wrangled for some ranches down in Texas

[00:01:29] And he punched some cows out in New Mexico

[00:01:34] And he nearly starved to death in Argentina

[00:01:38] Then in Africa he joined a wild west show

[00:01:44] Yes will rogers was a country boy

[00:01:48] One of oklahoma's favorite sons

[00:01:52] The nation claimed him as their pride and joy

[00:01:56] But his roots were deep in Oklahoma side

[00:02:04] From the early days of Vaudeville to the big time

[00:02:08] Folks that knew him said he never changed

[00:02:13] He was still the simple Oaklahoma cowboy

[00:02:17] And no matter what he always stayed the same

[00:02:22] Well I suppose most of all he loved the people

[00:02:26] Said he never met a man he didn't like

[00:02:31] When times were hard and folks were feeling sorry

[00:02:36] A word from Will would always bring a smile

[00:02:41] Yes will rogers was a country boy

[00:02:45] One of oklahoma's favorite sons

[00:02:49] The nation claimed him as their pride and joy

[00:02:53] But his roots were deep in Oklahoma side

[00:02:58] Yes his roots were deep in Oklahoma side
