I Can't Ride The Broncos Anymore

(albüm: Melodies And Memories - 1984)

Well a man can't spend his life in reflection,
Just thinking about the way things used to be.
So I'm gonna take myself a new direction,
And make myself some brand new memories.
Well I spent lots of years out on that highway,
Riding bucking horses for my grub.
But now I make my living with this ole guitar.
And just like Rodeo it's in my blood.
And now I'm gonna sing my cowboy music,
With a country feeling and a little touch of soul.
And I hope you people take a liking to it. Yes I do!
'Cause I can't ride the bronco's anymore
Now I make you a wager, that I've been in your hometown.
Riding broncs in your big rodeo,
But now the only time you'll ever see this cowboy come around.
Is if I'm singing in a country music show.
And now I'm gonna sing my cowboy music,
With a country feeling and a little touch of soul.
And I hope you people take a liking to it. Yes I do!
'Cause I can't ride the broncos anymore.
My whole body's getting to dang tired and sore.
And there's a lot of parts on me that don't work no more...
