Rodeo Clown

(álbum: Hold My Beer, Vol. 2 - 2020)

She told me it was over
With a suitcase in her hand
When she said she'd met a cowboy
I was picturing the Marlboro man
Well it wasn't her leaving
Hell, it wasn't even
The fact that she was running around
What hurts me the most
Is she left me for a rodeo clown

He coulda been a doctor
A lawyer, maybe, I'd understand
Or a bull-riding belt-buckle
Snuff-dipping macho man
But a guy named Darryl
Hiding in a barrel
Red nose and a painted-on frown
Yeah, she didn't just leave me
She left me for a rodeo clown

Your friends are gonna ask me
But I'm just gonna tell 'em a lie
I'll say she was getting too clingy
And you just had to say goodbye
'Cause you'd get throttled
If they knew that Ronald McDonald
Was doing her now
"No, she didn't just leave ya
She left you for a rodeo clown"

He coulda been a doctor
A lawyer, maybe, I'd understand
Or a bull-riding belt-buckle
Snuff-dipping macho man
But a guy named Darryl
Hiding in a barrel
Red nose and a painted-on frown
Nah, she didn't just leave ya
She left you for a rodeo clown

If I'd known she was into
Suspenders and big shoes
Mighta coulda worked something out
But she went to Vegas
And left me for a rodeo clown
Yeah, it hurts just to say it
She left you for a rodeo clown
