Additional Verses: =0D He told of a time when he rode with the Rangers Down on the Pecos and he saved the day Outnumbered by plenty, they were almost to cover, WIth thirty banditos headed their way. He looked back just in time to see a horse stumble, The captain wnet down and bill pulled up on his reins. And through a flurry of bullets he rescued the captain, They rode for a sunset, just the story remains. =0D Well, I still remember the day that it happened We waited and waited, but Bill never showed. And the folks at the feedstore said they hadn't seen him So we set out for his place down Old Grist Mill Road. And we Cried when we found him lying there with his Memories The old trunk wide open things scattered about. And he was clutching a badge that said texas Ranger, And an old yeller letter said "Texas is Proud" =0D (To second Chorus) --PART.BOUNDARY.0.16174.mail04.mail.aol.com.815789230--
