Hold it, stranger.
I'll tell you a story,
a real true life story,
A tale of the Western frontier.
The West, it was lawless,
but one man was flawless,
And his is the story you'll hear.
Wyatt Earp, Wyatt Earp,
Brave, courageous, and bold,
Long live his fame,
and long live his glory,
And long may his story be told.
When I came to Kansas to
settle in Kansas,
I planned on a peace of a life,
Some goods and some chattel,
a few head of cattle,
A home and a sweet lovin'
wife.
Now I wasn't partial to bein' a marshal,
but fate went and dealt me a hand.
While outlaws were lootin'
and killin' and shootin',
I knew that I must take a stand.
Oh, Wilder, Wilder, brave,
courageous, and bold.
Long live his fame,
and long live his glory,
and long may his story be told.
Well, he cleaned up the country,
the old Wild West country.
He made law and order prevail.
And none can deny it,
the legend of Wyatt,
forever we'll live on the
trail.
Long live his fame, and long live his glory,
and long may his story be told,
long may his Victory be thine!
