His eyes are cold and restless, His wounds have almost healed
And she'd give half of Texas, Just to change the way he feels
She knows his love's in Tulsa, she knows he's gonna go
Well it ain't no woman flesh and blood, It's that damned old rodeo
Chorus
Well it's bulls and blood, It's dust and mud
It's the roar of a Sunday crowd
It's the white in his knuckles, The gold in the buckle
He'll win the next go 'round
It's boots and chaps, It's cowboy hats
It's spurs and let it go
It's the ropes and the reins, And the joy and the pain
And they call the thing rodeo
She does her best to hold him, When his love comes to call
But his need for it controls him, And her back's against the wall
And it's So long girl I'll see you, When it's time for him to go
You know the woman wants her cowboy, Like he wants his rodeo
Chorus
It'll drive a cowboy crazy, It'll drive the man insane
And he'll sell off everything he owns, Just to pay to play the game
And a broken home and some broken bones, Is all he'll have to show
For all the years that he spent chasin', This dream they call rodeo
Chorus
It's the broncs and the blood
It's the steers and the mud
And they call the thing rodeo
