Life Of A Rodeo Cowboy

(альбом: I'm Always On A Mountain When I Fall - 1978)

Well, it really has been nice being with you
But I'm afraid that I've got to leave
As you know I'm a rodeo cowboy
And there's a rodeo down in Mesquite.

That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
Breaking broncs or getting broke
That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
And that's the only life I know.

On the day you think your day is the big one
I'm walking away with all that they own
Then your lying hurting hearing someone saying
Give him a hand that's all that cowboy is taking home.

Hot beer and cold stale hamburgers
Makes a meal sorta hard to enjoy
And it kinda makes you think of momma's chicken
Ah that's the life of a rodeo cowboy.

That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
Breaking broncs or getting broke
That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
And that's the only life I know.

When your down and your really feeling sorry
Well you go for a drink in some bar
Then someone points at you and you hear him whisper
Over there stands a rodeo star.

That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
Breaking broncs or getting broke
That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
And that's the only life I know.

That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
Breaking broncs or getting broke
That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
And that's the only life I know...
