Rodeo

Dust in the air, boots hittin' the ground
Crowd's gettin' loud, that old fiddle sound
Leather and rope, the Sun sinkin' low
Another night under the lights of the rodeo

Heart's beatin' fast like a wild Mustang
Freedom's a song that I love to sang

Rodeo, that's where I feel alive
Eight seconds of thunder, hangin' on to survive
From Texas plains to the Colorado snow
My soul belongs to the rodeo

Calloused hands and a worn-out hat
Ain't much money, but I'm proud of that
The road is long, but the fire still glows
Livin' for the cheers and the dust that blows

Every fall and every scar I show
Tells the story of a cowboy's soul

Rodeo, that's where I feel alive
Eight seconds of thunder, hangin' on to survive
From Amarillo down to Tupelo
My heart keeps beatin' for the rodeo

Mama prays I'll settle down someday
But this wild heart just won't stay
Got a lasso dream and a love that grows
Underneath those big arena shows

Rodeo, the only life I know
Holdin' on tight, then lettin' go
From dusty trails to the neon glow
I'll ride forever in the rodeo

Yeah, I'll ride forever
In the rodeo
