Life Of A Rodeo Cowboy

Well, it really has been nice bein' 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, breakin' broncs or gettin' 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 walkin' away with all that they own

Then you're lyin', hurtin', hearin' 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

When you're down and you're 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

That's the life of a rodeo cowboy
