Ride 'Em Cowboy

Traveling with the rodeo
 It's the only life he'll ever know
 Started in New Mexico
 It must have been a thousand years ago
 He used to be the best they say
 Riding young wild horses for his pay
 But now he's much too old it seems
 He only rides wild horses in his dreams
 They told him ride 'em cowboy
 Don't let 'em throw you down
 You can't make no money if you hit the ground
 Ride 'em cowboy
 Don't let 'em throw you down
 You're the toughest cowboy in town
 ♪
 Midnight was the champion
 He was the only bronc that he couldn't ride
 Now,I hear old Midnight's blind
 Ridin' little children for a dime
 Ladies used to hang around
 He must have been a hero in their eyes
 Silver spurs are rusted now
 Lord,he wished he tried to settle down
 They told him ride 'em cowboy
 Don't let 'em throw you down
 You can't make no money if you hit the ground
 Ride 'em cowboy
 Don't let 'em throw you down
 You're the toughest cowboy in town
 He used to be a traveling cowboy
 But now there's no place left to go
 What is he supposed to do,ooh,ooh,ooh,ooh
 He's left out in the cold
 They told him ride 'em cowboy
 Don't let 'em throw you down
 You can't make no money if you hit the ground
 Ride 'em cowboy
 Don't let 'em throw you down
 You're the toughest cowboy in town
 Traveling with the rodeo,it's the only life he'll ever know
