Lyrics Johnny Cash

Johnny Cash

Rodeo Hand

He's a rodeo hand a dyin' breed driftin' like a tumble weed

Rollin' where the urge tells him to go

And all this cowboy really needs is a tank of gas and entry fees

To get him to the next big rodeo

Now most athletes take alfalfa pills and super B's

A cowboy don't need all that motern stuff

A cowboy's gotta be lean and mean he trains on caffine and nicotine

And them all night drives help to make him tough

He's underfed and under paid and too damn hungry to be afraid

Some where between the crazy and insane

Cowboys ain't afraid pf dyin' shoot he'd even ride a red eyed Lion

If you'd show him where to take the rein

Now the only coach a cowboy needs is a growlin' gut that says come on let's eat

So tonight cowboy you better make a winning ride

Bout the only thing that makes him go

Is that big gold buckle waitin' down the road

And a bad case of too much cowboy pride
