Wild West Hero [album Version] Lyrics - Electric Light Orchestra

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 oh oh 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 love 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 oh oh 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 love to be free 

Ridin' into the sunset 

I wish I could be.
