Gene Autry, My Hero

(الألبوم: It's Just A Matter Of Time - 1985)

The childhood memories I treasure the most I suppose
Were the Saturday afternoons spent at the town's picture show
I'd work all day long in the fields but at night I would dream
That I'd see Gene Autry go riding across the big screen

Saturday mornings I'd walk five miles or more
And twelve o'clock noon found me first one in line at the door
I worked all week long but today I fulfilled my dream
And I'd see Gene Autry go riding across the big screen

The man in the white cowboy hat is a hero to me
He was and he is now and I guess he always will be
Time takes away many things but it can't take a dream
And I see Gene Autry go riding across the big screen

Oft as a child from our home in the country I'd roam
And my Daddy would scold me cause I'd never be around home
Ah but Mom understood me 'cause she'd always smile when I use to say
Gene Autry and I have been rounding up outlaws all day

The man in the white cowboy hat is a hero to me
He was and he is now and I guess he always will be
Time takes away many things but it can't take a dream
And I see Gene Autry go riding across the big screen
And I see Gene Autry go riding across the big screen
