Lyrics

SAME OLD SAME OLD (alt SAME OLD RODEO)
words and music by Stephen P. Amos

I hear the highway howling under my wheels,
Me and this truck are headin out of Mobile,
I got that rodeo fever again,
I ain?t seen no money since I rode in Spokane (alt Cheyenne)

CHORUS
It?s the same old rodeo,
The same old rough ridin? bhrama bull,
It?s the same old mouth full of dirt,
The same old achin? feelin? way down where it hurts.

We made Houston just in time for the draw,
I got Old Thunder and a bull named Mcgraw,
Looks like my luck is changin? man that?s a first,
Trouble is it went from just bad to worse,

CHORUS

Sometimes it feels like I?m just stuck in the shoots,
Waitin? to ride I never found any roots,
All the time waiting while them gates open wide,
Sittin? there thinkin? this might be my last ride,

Damned if I don?t, damned if I do, I got that cowboy brand,
Its black and it?s blue,
Now I may never be another Chris LaDoux,
But I wear that cowboy tattoo.

Sometimes I wonder just what I?ve done,
Wasted my life on that rodeo run,
For all my family or friends seem to care,
I could go straight to hell and ride the rodeo there,

CHORUS
