Ride 'Em Cowboy

Travelin' with the rodeo
 That's the only life I've ever known
 It started in new mexico
 Must've been a hundred years ago
 I used to be the best they say
 Ridin' young wild horses for my pay
 Now I'm much too old it seems
 I only ride wild horses in my dreams
 (chorus)
 They used to tell me, ride em' cowboy
 Don't let 'em throw you down
 You can't make no money, if you hit the ground
 They just said, ride 'em cowboy
 Don't let 'em throw you down
 You're the toughest cowboy in town
 (bridge)
 I've always been the rhinestone cowboy
 I don't care what glen campbell has to say
 What am I supposed to do
 Midnight was a champion
 He's the only bronc I could not ride
 Now they tell me midnight's blind
 He only rides the children for a dime
 Ladies used to hang around
 I must've been a hero in their eyes
 My silver spurs are rusty now
 Lord I wish I tried to settle down
 (chorus)
 (bridge)
 (last verse)
 (chorus)
