Lyrics
One More Rodeo ©2017 Plimmer/Ryan
Ten years on the circuit
Ridin' bull and eatin' dirt
Never thought much about my body
Always rode through all the hurt
From Texas to Wyoming
Eight long seconds were my goal
Till I felt my insides achin'
All them rides sure take their toll
Started waitin' for the downtime
Give the pain a chance to git
Till one show in Montana
When my back said "this is it"
Man, I hate the word 'retired'
Every day moves too damn slow
So, to hell with all this downtime
I need one more rodeo
I spent most of my off-season
Findin' jobs from town to town
Been spendin' all my downtime
Waitin' for the next go-round
All the fences I kept fixin'
Common sense went out the door
Even though I needed money
I needed something more
CHORUS
So, if you're out there ridin'
And find trouble on the trail
Just listen to my story
It's a cautionary tale
When your heart says 'keep on tryin'
You don't want to let it go
Even till the day you're dyin'
You'll want one more rodeo
