Daddy

(reba mcentire)
My daddy is a rancher
Hes wrangled cattle dang near all his life
He also liked to rodeo
He traveled around with four kids and a wife
Well his old ranch is rocky
But his ropes sail smooth for several years
He worked real hard
And roped real good
And tried to get his ranch out in the clear
He didnt want us kids to rodeo
He wanted more out of life for us
Maybe banking, or a lawyer
Or maybe even driving some old bus
Well thats when we took up singing
And his pride grew greater day by day
And I know his eyes grew misty
The night I sang up on the opry stage
Chorus:
Now his ranch is so much bigger

Angels From Montgomery

Angel from montgomery
John prine
I am an old woman
Named after my mother,
My old man is another
Child thats grown old
If dreams were lightning
And thunder were desire
This old house would have burnt down
A long time ago
Make me an angel that flies from montgomery,
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to,
To believe in this livin is just a hard way to go
When I was a young girl
I had me a cowboy
He werent much to look at,
Just a free ramblin man.
But that was a long time
And no matter how I try,

Rhinestone Cowboy

I've been walking these streets so long
singing the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
where hustle's the name of the game
and nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
there's been a load of compromising
on the road to my horizon
but I'm gonna be where the lights are shining on me
like a rhinestone cowboy
riding out on a horse
in a star spangled rodeo
like a rhinestone cowboy
getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
and offers coming over the phone
well I really don't mind the rain
and a smile can hide all the pain
but you're down when you're riding the train
that's taking the long way
and I dream of the things I'll do
with a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe

They gave me the chaps and hat and everything. I looked like a real cowboy. I walked around the rodeo and thought, I am a real cowboy and thought everyone thought I was a real cowboy.

Let Me Go To The Show

Mama, please let me go to the show
I dig those bad boys playing that rock and roll
No way, son, you cant go out tonight
So I got real upset, put up the biggest fight
Chorus:
Mama, let me go to the show
I dig those bad boys playing that rock and roll
Mama, let me go out tonight
Mama, please, before I lose my mind
Out the window
Shimmy down the tree
I take a look around
Make sure no ones watching me
I steal the keys and take
My old mans chevrolet
I can hear my mama scream
From ten miles away
Chorus:
Rock and roll rodeo
Rock and roll rodeo

Ohio

She said she needed a break
a little time to think
but then she went to Cleveland
with some guy named Leelan
that she met at the bank
There's nothing wrong with Ohio
Except the snow and the rain
I really like Drew Carey
and I'd love to see the Rock n' Rock Hall of Fame
(Bridge)
so when you're done doing whatever
and when you're through doing whoever
you know that your county will be right here waiting for you
come back to texas
it's just not the same since you went away
before you lose your accent
and forget all about the lonestar state
there's a seat for you at the rodeo
and I've got every slow dance saved
Besides the Mexican food sux north of here anyway

Kindness and compassion toward all living things is a mark of a civilized society. Conversely, cruelty, whether it is directed against human beings or against animals, is not the exclusive province of any one culture or community of people. Racism, economic deprival, dog fighting and cock fighting, bull fighting and rodeos are cut from the same fabric: violence. Only when we have become nonviolent toward all life will we have learned to live well ourselves.

Ohio (Come Back To Texas)

She said, she needed a break

But then she went to Cleveland

Except the snow and the rain
I really like Drew Carey
And I'd love to see the Rock n' Rock Hall of Fame
So when you're done doing whatever
And when you're through doing whoever
You know, Denton County will be right here waiting for you
Come back to Texas
It's just not the same since you went away
Before you lose your accent
And forget all about the Lonestar State
There's a seat for you at the rodeo
And I've got every slow dance saved
Besides, the Mexican food sucks north of here anyway
I think I made a mistake

I raise quarter horses. Mine are mostly thoroughbred cross horses, a little bigger horses than some people like. I sell them or use them on the ranch. A lot of them go to the rodeo arena and some of them go to racetracks.

Can Still Make Cheyenne

Her telephone rang bout a quarter to nine
She heard his voice on the other end of the line
She wondered what was wrong this time
She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him, it could be anything
And she always expected the worst
In the back of her mind
He said, its cold out here and Im all alone
I didnt make the short go, again and Im coming home
I know Ive been away too long
I never got a chance to write or call
And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
But Ill be home soon
And honey is there somethin wrong
She said, dont bother comin home
By time you get here Ill be long gone
Theres somebody new and he sure aint no rodeo man
He said, Im sorry its come down to this
Theres so much about you that Im gonna miss
But its alright baby

Cowboy Song

I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
A starry night, a campfire light
The coyote call, the howling winds wail
So I ride out to the old sundown
I am just a cowboy lonesome on the trail
Lord, Im just thinking about a certain female
The nights we spent together riding on the range
Looking back it seems so strange
Roll me over and turn me around
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
Roll me over and let me go
Running free with the buffalo
I was took in texas I did not know her name
Lord, all these southern girls seem the same
Down below the border in a town in mexico
I got my job busting broncs for the rodeo
Roll me over and turn me around
Let me keep spinning till I hit the ground
Roll me over and let me go
Riding in the rodeo

All I Want

Ride the wild one cowboy in the rodeo
Love like crazy juliet and romeo
Living only to consume
Bruising hearts collecting gloom
Seems no place to hide away
From the hammer and caress
Dress with passion
Fashion for the parking lot
Make some action
Pushing time out of the clock
Take away identity
Parcel up whats left of me
Water down the youthful drop
Call the sane insanity
All I want is to live with you
All I want is to cry with you
Dance til sunrise
Reggae til the cows come home
Fight the bigot
Champion youre not alone

Rodeo

There comes a son,
A son of angels
Carrying an empty glass
Trying to fill it to the surface
Well tell your thirst love has passed
You carry on, carry the world
You must get worn with all the weight
I take it in but you wont no where
And no wheres where were headed fast
(past? )
[chorus]
Oh, oh, rodeo
Slow turning to and fro
Oh, oh, rodeo
Where we land (laugh? ? ) no one knows
(no one knows..)
Were not blind to what it is
In other words, the ignorant kind
Well life is short, but oh its wide
Its wide enough to read your mind

C'mere

It's way too late to be this locked inside ourselves
The trouble is that you're in love with someone else
It should be me. Oh, it should be me
Sacred parts, your get aways
You come along on summer days
Tenderly, tastefully
It's so me, we make time
Try to find somebody else
This place is mine
Set the day, you know exactly how I feel
I had my doubts little girl
I'm in love with something real
It could be me, that's changing!
It's so me, we make time
To try and find somebody else
We pass a line
Now season with health
Two lovers walk on lakeside mile
Try pleasing with stealth, rodeo
See the stands long ending path

She's Like The Weather

Life is simple. Life is sweet.
Oh, so saddle up and go.
Little cowgirl, in the underground,
she talks to people she doesn't know.
Oh, people on the train to Eden
The circus girl, after all the rodeos,
she settles down alone.
She planted flowers in her basement
so she has a little color when the sky runs low.
[Chorus:]
She likes the weather today
She said "It's raining' in my head"
All of the flowers I've raised
Come up a little cloudy
Life is bitter. Life is cheap.
The cowgirl settles down alone.
Yeah, ten years out of Eden now
She's got a little garden of her very own

Lonesome Rodeo Cowboy

I own this horse and saddle
And that old cadillac
This broken down horse trailer
And the clothes that are on my back
Well I know that it aint a hell of alot
But its all that I can show
My wife left me five years ago
In one of those rodeo towns
I cant say that I blame her much
She just wanted to settle down
Oh God how I miss that woman
It hurt so to see her go
If I was smart I woulda stuck by her
But Im hooked on this rodeo
Chorus:
And Im just a lonesome cowboy
Im a little bit over the hill
I shoulda quit this thing a long time ago
But I guess I never will
So I keep on movin from show to show

Backstage

The Pantomime Horse
in the theatre corral
is proving unbroken
a wayward cheval

he's trapped them inside
at the rear and the front
they're no longer amused
by this equinine stunt

he's called for some wild-oats
and now for a mare
Oh who wrote the script
for this torrid affair

so a Rodeo-Vet was hired for the day
and thank God for the curtain
and pretend bales of hay.

Bump N Grind Remix

You know I cant see nothing wrong with a little bump n grind baby
Repeat x 4
Sit down on the couch
Take your shoes off
Let me rub your body before I tear it off
The honey lover man is ready to flex
Girl flex time to have sex
Well start right here and work our way around
I wont stop until I hear the ooo ah sound
Dont front you know about the rodeo show
So show me some Id before I get in it deep
Cause to you I dont see
Chorus
I dont see nothing wrong
(you know I cant see nothing wrong with a little bump n grind baby)
Repeat x 4
This is goin on till the early morn
And my word bond so baby flex the thongs
I got what you want you got what I need
Homie lover friends is all I wanna be
