Songtexte Marion Michael Morrison - Ray Stevens

He was born in the little farming town of Winterset
On the new frontier
A Midwest native son
But his star would shine as bright
As any star can ever get
And he would cast a giant shadow

He went to reap the wild wind
In old California
And across the Rio Grande
From a stage coach on a big trail
To Rio Bravo and back again
He rode on wings of eagles this quiet man
