The Chaps in the closet
The boots on the floor
Your vivid memories
of a Tulsa Whore

The Tape the gauze and the beat up hat
Makes you wonder where it's at
Eight seconds you tried alot
For fame and glory - all for naught

Some wicked old horse, or a buckin' bull
Left your body an empty hull
The pain, the whiskey - all that stuff
Makes you take a dip of snuff

You fight, Play around and get in a brawl
That room full of hippies, You can whip them all
But the years keep sneaking up on you
All your memories make you blue

You gave up a woman you love alot
Rodeo memories are all you got
But cheer up waddie, and take a chew
You are one of a precious few

Rodeo cowboy's aren't a dying breed
They are the beginning -  they are the seed
To away of life that is good for all
The Rodeo Cowboy has a Ball!

People get wise and give him a hand
Before they lay him in the sand
Who else can say they are free
The Rodeo Cowboy can't you see

It's the Rodeo Cowboy,  That's ME!

Rodeo 
 

He limps down the lane,
with the aid of a cane
Betrayed and alone, he feels pushed and shoved,
Left and abandoned by the woman he loved.

She gave him excitement - it was a hell of a ride
He treated her like a new found bride
He gave her his time, love and respect,
But when he got hurt, she showed reject

She forgot his name, scorned his love,
She threw him away - like a discarded glove
After all the years of excitement and joy
She laughed and teased,  "Adios Boy"

She slammed his heart into the dirt,
She rushed away with a twirl of her skirt
He wants her to love him so very bad,
She is gone  -  and she ain't sad.

She will find another so bold,
A healthy young cowboy to shape and to mold.
Then she will leave him a broken old man,
Limping along on natures sand.

The woman can't hear,  She can't even see,
She is "RODEO" after you and me.
To some she will love, and try to be nice,
But Lady "RODEO" isn't a prize

She will break your heart and ruin your soul,
So stay away  - don't be a fool
Give back just what you get
This will give the woman a fit
Rodeo the Woman,  The Love of your life.
