Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Buffalo Bill
Movin' west on a slow white bronco
Through the plains
With a reckless heart of gold
He rode the trails
Huntin' fame and fortune
But little did they know the darkness in his soul
[Verse 2]
Two people fell to the swift blade of his knife
In the pale moonlight
Their cries echoed in the night
But Buffalo Bill
He wore a deceptive smile
Underneath it all
The demons danced wild
[Chorus]
Oh
Buffalo Bill
Ridin' on that slow bronco
They couldn't catch him
Though that horse was slow
He rode with rage
But found peace as he died
His name forever etched in the history of the wild
[Verse 5]
One fateful night, in a post game brawl,
Bill's temper flared, his girl took a fall.
The gloves he wore, too tight for his hands,
As hair flew wild, and blood changed hands.
[Chorus]
Oh
Buffalo Bill
Ridin' on that slow bronco
They couldn't catch him
Though that horse was slow
He rode with rage
But found peace as he died
His name forever etched in the history of the wild
[Verse 6]
With lawmen on his tail, in the light of the moon,
Bill spurred his bronco, hoping to elude the doom.
With six shooter at his head, the chase did ensue,
But that slow white bronco, it knew what to do.
[Verse 7]
The stars bore witness, to the chase in the night,
As Bill rode on, with all of his might.
Through canyons and valleys, he raced with no fear,
His fate uncertain, as dawn drew near.
[Chorus]
Oh
Buffalo Bill
Ridin' on that slow bronco
They couldn't catch him
Though that horse was slow
He rode with rage
But found peace as he died
His name forever etched in the history of the wild
[Outro]
So here's to Buffalo Bill
And the journey he made
From darkness to light
On that slow bronco's sway
Though his name may be tarnished
His story will live on
In the hearts of those who seek
America 'neath the western sun
