Ballad Of Will Rogers - Chris Ledoux[00:00:00]
He was born and raised in oklahoma[00:00:08]
His blood lines were white and cherokee[00:00:13]
His daddy owned a ranch outside of clairmore[00:00:18]
Where he learned to ride before the age of three[00:00:22]
Now young will rogers was a cowboy[00:00:27]
And he practiced with his rope 'most everyday[00:00:32]
Well he'd ride around the barn or across the prairie[00:00:36]
And throw a loop at anything that came his way[00:00:40]
Yes will rogers was a country boy[00:00:46]
One of oklahoma's favorite sons[00:00:51]
The nation claimed him as their pride and joy[00:00:55]
But his roots were deep in Oklahoma side[00:00:59]
Before too long he had his fill of schooling[00:01:07]
At eighteen years he got the urge to roam[00:01:11]
A whole great big world was out there waiting[00:01:16]
So he saddled up and lit out on his own[00:01:20]
He wrangled for some ranches down in Texas[00:01:25]
And he punched some cows out in New Mexico[00:01:29]
And he nearly starved to death in Argentina[00:01:34]
Then in Africa he joined a wild west show[00:01:38]
Yes will rogers was a country boy[00:01:44]
One of oklahoma's favorite sons[00:01:48]
The nation claimed him as their pride and joy[00:01:52]
But his roots were deep in Oklahoma side[00:01:56]
From the early days of Vaudeville to the big time[00:02:04]
Folks that knew him said he never changed[00:02:08]
He was still the simple Oaklahoma cowboy[00:02:13]
And no matter what he always stayed the same[00:02:17]
Well I suppose most of all he loved the people[00:02:22]
Said he never met a man he didn't like[00:02:26]
When times were hard and folks were feeling sorry[00:02:31]
A word from Will would always bring a smile[00:02:36]
Yes will rogers was a country boy[00:02:41]
One of oklahoma's favorite sons[00:02:45]
The nation claimed him as their pride and joy[00:02:49]
But his roots were deep in Oklahoma side[00:02:53]
Yes his roots were deep in Oklahoma side[00:02:58]
