Lyrics

Buck had a tale (yarn to tell) Spin you a yarn of desert and scale Where the vultures circle and the coyotes wail In the heart of the west, where the brave prevail Oh, be that nice hand (nice hand) Greet with a smile wide as the Rio Grande With boots in the dirt (the sun overhead) Buck rides the trail where the honest are led In the wild, wild west, a man's word is his bond Straight shooting, Buck's creed, clear as the pond The cacti stand witness (stoic and sage) The rattlesnake's hiss, a natural gauge Hearken to Buck (listen close) With his six-string truth and simple code Where mirages tempt but the truth's foretold By the brave-hearted men, honor to uphold Buck had a code (sharp and clear) Be like the hawk, with eyes so sheer Buck draws a line (steadfast and true) Through the sands of deceit, to skies so blue Nice as they come, but sharp as a quill Fair in his dealings, over plain and hill Up with the sun (dawn's first light) Clear-headed, Buck rides, doing what's right
