Lyrics
Life of a Rodeo
Lyrics © 2011 Dallas Marshall
Verse 1
My hand on the gate, I'm shootin for eight
Got a pretty good draw this time
A bull named Sinner, could make me a winner
At least I'll go down tryin
It's been so long, since I've seen home
But tonight I've got a chance
To place in the money, and be with my honey
Some overdue romance
Chorus
Hey, it's another day, in the life of a rodeo
Sometimes you win, sometimes your luck, it just goes cold
Hey, it's another day, in the life of a rodeo
But it's the only life I know
Verse 2
I came in first, and won that purse
So I called her on the phone
Now she's there waiting, so no hesitating
It's time to hit the road
Dear Lord I pray, please guide my way
Get me there with your God Speed
To hold my lady, and my little baby
Is all I really need
Chorus
Hey, it's another day, in the life of a rodeo
Sometimes you win, sometimes your luck, it just goes cold
Hey, it's another day, in the life of a rodeo
But it's the only life I know
Bridge
I see the house ahead; her car is in the drive
My family's waiting there; it's good to be alive
Chorus
Hey, it's another day, in the life of a rodeo
Sometimes you win, sometimes your luck, it just goes cold
Hey, it's another day, in the life of a rodeo
But it's the only life I know
Yeah it's the only life I know
The life of a rodeo
