[Pake:]
Gather `round me boys
I`ve a story to tell
`Bout a friend of mine
That you all know well
He`s an old cowhand
He`s known near and far
He goes by the name
Of John McEntire
1897
Was the year he was born
In Loula, Oklahoma
On a small dirt farm
They say John was born
With a rope in his hand
He wanted to be
A rodeo man
[All:]
A friendly companion
And a rodeo star
There`s none greater
Than John McEntire
There`s none greater
Than John McEntire
