Mark Schultz - Legend Of Mcbride lyrics

rate me

Long ago on the Texas Plains

Was a little town

That never changed

Until a man rode into town,

A Ranger known for miles around

Well, he could keep the peace

Without a gun

From Abilene down to Galveston

When he rode by the general store

People crowded through the door

To see the legend and the man called McBride,

And oh, woh, woh,

And oh, woh, woh,

And oh, woh, woh

In Iverson

Through the doors of the old hotel

A burnin' fire began to build

People screamin' for their lives,

And the first one there was john McBride.

And just as soon

As he stepped in

People saw the roof cave in,

And everybody knew

That he would not survive

And oh, woh, woh,

And oh, woh, woh,

And oh, woh, woh

In Iverson

Than a lady right outside,

Said her baby boy was trapped inside

But not a man would fight the flames,

And she knew

That it would be too late

But through the smoke

And burnin flames

She heard her baby

Call her name

The boy appeared

But no one knew

Who saved his life.

And when the boy grew old and gray

He spoke about that fateful day,

And the man that saved his life,

Texas Ranger, john McBride

And oh, woh, woh,

And oh, woh, woh,

And oh, woh, woh

In Iverson

And oh, woh, woh,

And oh, woh, woh,

And oh, woh woh

Still I travel far and wide,

Yeah

To hear the legend of McBride. YEAH
