Wild West Hero Lyrics - Electric Light Orchestra

Wish I was, yeah, 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, 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, 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, a wild west hero 

I wish I was, oh, a wild west hero 

I wish I was, oh, a wild west hero 

Wish I was, oh, a wild west hero 

Wish I was, ooh, a wild west hero
