Rodeo Cowboy

I meet him in Wyoming at the Cheyenne rodeo Just a kid in pigtails and thirteen at the time I remember how I cheered the day he rode a horse called Midnight And I vowed that someday that cowgirl could be mine Followed him to Denver where we became good friends We'd sit around the cutes and talk while he was killin' time He'd laugh and tell me stories but he'd never mention stayin' For the next town and the rodeo were always on his mind He's a rodeo cowboy he follows the circuit Where top money's paid that's where he'll be found The only thing he owns is a horse and silver saddle Rodeo cowboy he'll never settle down In Salt Lake City Utah he told her that he loved her But still I knew he wasn't born to be the settling kind For with tomorrow's sun he'd pack up his ol' suitcase And leave all thoughts of me and love a hundred miles behind The last time that I saw him was in Amarillo Texas I'm still in love with him although he can't be mine But I'll always keep the shinny silver buckle that he gave me Reads All Around Cowboy of 1969 He's a rodeo cowboy he follows the circuit...
