Ride 'Em Cowboy Songtext / Lyric

Trav'ling with the rodeo Its the only life I'll ever know
I started in New Mexico Must have been a thousand years ago
I used to be the best they say Ay ridin'young wild horses for my pay
But now I'm much too old it seem I only ride wild horses in my dream

They used to tell me
Ride'emcowboy Don't let 'em throw ya down
You can make no money if you hit the ground
They'd say ride'em cowboy don't let 'em throuw ya down
You're the toughest cowboy in town

Old midnight was a champion he'sthe only bronc I could't ride
But now I hear old midnight's blind and rides the little children for a dime
Ladies used to hang around I must have been a hero in there eyes
My silver spurs are rusty now Lord I wish I'd tried to settle down
I've always been a travelin'cowboy but now there'no place to go
What am I supposed to do Seems I'm left out
in the cold

Ride'emcowboy Don't let 'em throw ya down
You can make no money if you hit the ground
They'd say ride'em cowboy don't let 'em throuw ya down
You're the toughest cowboy in town
Travelin'with thr rodeo It's the only life I'll ever know.
