Traveling with the rodeo it's the only life he'll ever know
Started in New Mexico it must have been a thousand years ago
He used to be the best they say at riding young wild horses for his pay
But now he's much too old it seems he only rides wild horses in his dreams
They told him ride 'em cowboy don't let 'em throw you down
You can't make no money if you hit the ground
Anyhow ride 'em cowboy don't let 'em throw you down
You're the toughest cowboy in town
Midnight was the champion was the only bronc that he couldn't ride
Now I hear Old Midnights blind ridin' little children for a dime
Ladies used to hang around he must have been a hero in their eyes
Silver spurs are rusted now Lord he wished he tried to settle down
They told him ride 'em cowboy...
He used to be a traveling cowboy but now there's no place left to go
What is he supposed to do he's left out in the cold
They told him ride 'em cowboy...
Traveling with the rodeo it's the only life he'll ever know
