Horses are running wide open I just gotta ride
|
To those honky-tonk bars that stay open way past closing time
|
Songs about free thinkin' and drinking sure light my fire
|
That flame leaves a scar on my heart like an old branding iron
|
|
[Chorus]
|
She said rodeo man where are you going
|
Don't you know that the life of a cowboy is no good alone
|
If you tear down that fence of rusty barbed wire
|
Then I'll lay down beside you and be your shotgun rider
|
|
Yesterday's nothing but dust I brush off my boots
|
While I'm wearing out roads don't you know that I'm sure missing you
|
If I leave you'll be wondering when I'll be back again
|
Between Texas and ranchers and old friends where do you fit in
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Woman come lay down beside me and be my shotgun rider
|
