Big & Rich - Wild West Show Lyrics






I'm feelin' like Tonto,
Ridin' a Pinto,
Tryin' to chase the Lone Ranger down.
I'm a little unravelled,
But I'm still in the saddle,
Cryin' your name out to the clouds,
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Why don't you meet me,
Back at the tepee?
We'll lay down by the camp fire.
There, in the dark night,
We'll smoke the peace pipe,
Forget about who's wrong or right.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Yeah, it was a big showdown,
Oh yeah, we stood our ground.
Shot out the lights:
It got a little crazy.
I don't wanna see us go,
The way of the buffalo:
Don't wanna have another wild west show.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Only forgiveness,
Will finally end this.
There won't be a witness if we both fall.
There's never a hero,
In a battle of egos.
There's never a winner of the quick draw.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Yeah, it was a big showdown,
Oh yeah, we stood our ground.
Shot out the lights:
It got a little crazy.
Don't wanna see us go,
The way of the buffalo:
Don't wanna have another wild west show.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

It's like a ghost town,
Without you around.
Why can't we just forget it,
Ride off in the sunset?

It was a big showdown,
Oh yeah, we stood our ground.
Shot out the lights:
It got a little crazy.
I don't wanna see us go,
The way of the buffalo:
Don't wanna have another wild west show.
Hey yaw, Hey yaw!

I'm feelin' like Tonto,
Ridin' a Pinto,
Tryin' to chase the Lone Ranger down.

    Man I can't tell everyone how many fights my bestfriend/brother had and our friendship was saved by this song.

  3. K.... S....

    Wild West show and Holy Water are my 2 favorites. Because of how deep they grip the soul, for me.

  4. D.... L....

    Hay u guys come perform at frontier days in Cheyenne Wyoming.

  5. K.... H....

    The first album is really the best. I especially love this song it has a lot of heart.

  6. I.... ....

    Absolutely love this song. My first song I learned on the guitar. Big and Rich will always be my favorite present day country artist. See y'all in Richmond July 8th.

  7. S.... C....

    Great tune ..reminds me of living on AZ lakes on my bass boat 10 yrs ago... that ol gal on the flute is a cutie

  8. C.... R....

    I'm not a country guy, but I love this song.

  9. T.... T....

    Big Kenny forgiveness is a form of love.

  10. s.... ....

    I love this song and video with all of my heart and soul. Thank you, Big and Rich ❤😘❤

  12. C.... T....

    So many times my best friend and I would have a blow up between us. This song has always brought us back to forgiveness

  13. M.... F....

    I still think Horse of a Different Color is still my favorite Big & Rich album..especially with songs like this one on it...It still holds up today!!! Keep rockin' Big & Rich!!!

  14. g.... v....

  15. H.... W....

    I been singin this song for a long time

  16. S.... B....

    Hay. Big. And. Rich. U. Suck. Ass

  17. J.... M....

    This song was released right before save a horse ride a cowboy

  18. D.... W....

    To the person who said about the native American Indians, I'm not American, but it was an awful moment in world history, may they rest in peace. I heard this from someone who had put music from the tv series smallville on a cd, brilliant song. This also reminds me of my ex girlfriend, whom I'm very good friends with, CRYING YOUR NAME TO THE CLOUDS means to me how much I still think of her when i'm not with her, FORGET ABOUT WHO'S WRONG OR RIGHT means to me how stupid I was to let things cloud my mind and not remember our love for each other, WHY CAN'T WE BOTH FORGET, RIDE OFF IN THE SUNSET, lets try again. A brilliant song I think to download.

  19. S.... B....

    Big. And. Rich. More. Like. Big. And. Stupid

    S.... B....

    Ya. They. Are.

  20. D.... R....

    Love ya Danny!!!!!!!!!!

  21. S.... B....

    Big. And. Rich. SUCK.

  22. M.... C....

    not good

  23. S.... r....

    Big and rich will always be my favorite

  24. c.... E....

    my favorite song from them,period

  25. K.... S....

    I am distantly related to Nicole Laroche and Brulé. she is very talented how she mimics a wood flute in the traditional flute. in the Native American culture females aren't allowed to play the wood flute. The ability to mimic the sound is amazing.

  26. M.... C....

    One of the best songs ever- great lyrics!

  27. M.... L....

    Donny loved this song.

  28. M.... E....

    Love this.

  29. L.... A....

    Really? There are dislikes on this?

    L.... A....

    Some people are very hard to understand!

  30. N.... G....

    I will never forget my ancestors.... The Native American Indians.... I am so sad that you are all gone.... I will never take you for granted..... I appreciate all that I have.... :-) <3 :-( :)

    N.... G....

    Nell Guilbault be blessed brother

    N.... G....

    Nell Guilbault we are still alive!!

    N.... G....

    We native Americans are still alive!! We as a PEOPLE are not dead.

  31. m.... ....

    when are you coming to Australia again? I went to CMC solely because of you guys. It was just magic.

  32. B.... ....

    I live in rapid valley of the black hills and I have been to the place where big and rich filmed the video

    B.... ....

    so lucky!

    B.... ....

    where was this video shot? Saw the video and love the sculptures! Would love to visit.

    B.... ....

    it is in deadwood south Dakota the place is called tatanka that kevin Costner built

  33. H.... ....

    like the  insertion of the flute in the song!!!

    H.... ....

    Reminds me a bit of Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull.

  34. H.... ....

    another all time fav!!!!

  35. D.... A....

    Use to listen to this album in Iraq... good music to kick back to...

    D.... A....

    Dustin Alexander nothing like those tunes you’ll never forget them

  36. D.... A....

    yea know, Ive always like Big & Riches tone. both of your voices mixed with they style of play you guys do.... make it what it is!!! Hope to hear new songs come out from you guys, but the "older" stuff like this song... is great!!!

  37. P.... K....

    The first song from Big & Rich I heard and still my favourite

  38. E.... ....

    I jammed this song everyday in my truck back in high school

  39. c.... ....

    MY FAVORITE NEXT TO HOLY WATER!!!

  40. N.... ....

    By ear it sounds like Am C G F which is the chords to more songs than I can list and the strumming pattern in Wild West Show is very common also. I love this song though, One of the first I learned on guitar!

    N.... ....

    I'd say more like Am C G Dm

    N.... ....

    chorus Am C G F

  41. M.... P....

    ya ikr

  42. C.... ....

    Love this song!

  43. o.... ....

    P.S. I talked to Nicole LaRoche at Branson back on November 2, 2012 about this video. She said Kenny and John were great to work with. They met in Deadwood. B& R were playing in the bar and Brule was playing outside at a street fair.

  44. L.... W....

    this sounds so familiar

  45. c.... ....

    Video filmed in Deadwood. Another music video filmed in Deadwood. They got their start in Deadwood. Big Kenny opened a large casino and events center that draws awesome talent ever couple weeks, in Deadwood. They may not have been born here but these are South Dakota boys.

  46. K.... S....

    it makes me feel at peace when i listen to this song

  47. J.... G....

    I wish I was that flute

  48. R.... D....

    wow. I learned about Big & Rich from Donald Trumps show then realized i knew there biggest song ( Lost in This Moment) but i never realized this was on the radio.

  49. D.... ....

    favorite band of all time! still remember when this became a hit, been a fan since!

  50. F.... ....

    Whats the Big and Rich song that has the lyrics "Welcome to the big ans show whoa whoa" can some one help me out thanks

  51. N.... L....

    I worked at a hotel where they stayed a few years ago. Big Kenny came right in and shook hands and introduced himself. It was interesting to visit with him. He is a very "real" person. I think I enjoy their music even more because of the experience.

  52. G.... w....

    Awesome!!!!!.

  53. D.... ....

    big and rich are so good. wish they made more stuff
