Just once more
before I have to go
take me out, to the old-time Rodeo.
I want to see them Cowboys
ridin’ high,
buckin’ broncs
kickin’ up to the sky;
bulls and clowns
dancin’ each other around;
barrel racers
and calf chasers;
horses fast and free
now that’s what I need to see;
so please, take me down to the Rodeo
once more before I must go.
I wanna smell
the leather, dirt and cattle,
hear the announcer yell ‘Yeee-haaa! ‘
when horses and Cowboys do battle;
see the old-boys bowlegged
in boots, vests and Stetson hats,
watch them pretty fillies wiggle by
in tight Wranglers and leather chaps;
oh dear Lord, won’t ya
hear my soulful cry:
let me stand one more time upon them Rodeo grounds
underneath that big beautiful blue sky…
Take me down to the Rodeo
just once more before I go –
take me there
before I must fly,
out to the old Rodeo
one last time, before I die.
