I paid my dime, took my seat
Watched him ride across the silver screen
Catchin’ the bad guys… savin’ the town
Life was a whole lot better when Roy Rogers was around.
Lord it was a different time back then
Life was good and men were men
Never had no worries… you never saw a frown
Life was a whole lot better when Roy Rogers was around.
Roy never gave up, he never gave in
He never backed down, he’d always win
Never compromised with the bad guys nobody… pushed him around
Life was a whole lot better when Roy Rogers was around.
It was slower back then and a whole lot sweeter
Skies seemed bluer and the grass was greener
Nothin’ bad ever lasted long… nothin’ much got you down
Life was a whole lot better when Roy Rogers was around.
I still see Roy a-ridin’ in my dreams
Trigger and Dale still look the same
They got me thru some hard times… saw me safe and sound
Life was a whole lot better when Roy Rogers was around.
Roy never gave up, he never gave in
He never backed down, he’d always win
Never compromised with the bad guys nobody… pushed him around
Life was a whole lot better when Roy Rogers was around.
