Out on the range
|
The quiet, endless still
|
Where the wild S.S.I
|
Whispers from these hills
|
It's a petrified forest
|
Trailer parks and fords
|
And there ain't no goin' back
|
Rodeo girl
|
Saddle up
|
There's no more credit in this bank
|
Try your luck
|
Up in the East
|
Down in the West
|
Hold on tight
|
To the pony that you love the best
|
|
There's a medicine at the gate
|
And a number on your back
|
And this world is all jacked up like a cadillac
|
Painted by a rodeo girl
|
|
There's a medicine at the gate
|
And a number on your back
|
And this world is all jacked up like a cadillac
|
Painted by a rodeo girl
|
|
Rodeo girl, rodeo girl
|
Count all the boxcars
|
The blue and white stars
|
That fall for ya rodeo girl
|
|
You're lost in the desert
|
And it's too hot to think
|
You gotta know about the milk truck
|
If you want a drink
|
And when the cowboy's sing
|
Bobby sands and the bear
|
You can wet your lips
|
In the cool pools of despair
|
Up in the East
|
Down in the West
|
Hold on tight
|
Now you gotta be better than the best
|
|
There's a medicine at the gate
|
And a number on your back
|
This world is all jacked up like a cadillac
|
Painted by a rodeo girl
|
|
There's a medicine at the gate
|
And a number on your back
|
This world is all jacked up like a cadillac
|
Painted by a rodeo girl
|
Rodeo girl
