Lyrics
Rodeo Or Mexico
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
For a change I headed south across the border
For the pesos and a different horse to ride
I'd be back to make the rodeo in Waco
But that was long before I saw them dark brown eyes
With long black hair and English bad and broken
Her body said the words she couldn't find
As I hung on every word she left unspoken
The question started leaning on mind
Chorus:
RODEO OR MEXICO
THEY BOTH CAN KEEP A COWBOY SATISFIED
RODEO OR MEXICO
THE ONLY WAY I KNOW HOW TO DECIDE
IS JUST GET ON AND RIDE
We danced all night beneath that sheet of cotton
And you just don't tell a girl like that goodbye
But the cowboy life ain't easily forgotten
Though lying there I couldn't help but wonder why
Repeat Chorus
The morning found the answer dawning on me
As I woke up to the sharp end of a knife
He was screaming at the woman hanging on me
Does anybody know the Spanish word for wife?
Repeat Chorus
