Wish I could find me a white Stetson

Crisp and white and pure

I’d hang up old battered black one

Retire it away forever more

I know if I had me that white Stetson

One like Roy Rogers used to wear

I’d gather the grandkids around me

On my front porch rocking chair

I’d tell them tales of the old days

Of the way things used to be

If I had me that white Stetson

They’d be all ears listening to me

Perhaps I’d get down my old six string

Sing them songs Daniel Boone,

Davy Crockett, and Johnny Yuma

Or tin star sheriffs at high noon

You know if I had me a white Stetson

Perhaps I’d get a major movie role

Gene Autray would smile down on me

God bless his immortal soul

I think we need more white Stetsons

More John Waynes a ‘ridin tall

Those white Stetsons of our generation

Taught a message to us all….
