Legend of McBride
by Mark Schultz

Album: Mark Schultz
by Mark Schultz

On the go on a Texas plains
Just a little town that never changed
Until a man rode into town
A ranger known for miles around
He could keep the peace without a gun
From Abilene down to Galveston

Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
In Iverson

Through the doors of the old hotel
A burning fire began to build
People screamin' for their lives
And the first there was John Mcbride
Just as soon as he stepped in
People saw the roof cave-in
Everybody knew that he would not survive

Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
In Iverson

Then a lady right outside
Said her baby boy was trapped inside
Not a man could fight the flames
Ans she knew that it would be to late
When through the smoke and the burning flame
She heard her baby call her name
The boy appeared but no one knew who saved his life

When the boy grew old and gray
He spoke about that fateful day
And the man that saved his life
Texas ranger John Mcbride

Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
In Iverson

Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
In Iverson
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
Oh woh woh woh
in Iverson

Still I travel far an wide, yeah
To hear the legend of Mcbride, woh, yeah
