DESCRIPTION:
Mesquite
18 Hours of driving for 8 seconds of my life
It's not an even trade, but I don't got a choice
I don't do it for the money, 'cause I'm barely scraping by
This is in my blood, this is my life line
Daddy raised me strong, on all good things from God
Handed down the reigns a father to his son
Said boy you just remember as you make your way thought this
The best part of falling down is getting up again
I'm a cowboy in the rodeo
Town to town hey off I go
Texas to California
Yee haw, yipeea ki yea
Filling up my tank with what's left in my hand
Hope I make enough just to make it back
The highway and the open road they are friends to me
My old palomino my only company
I'm a cowboy in the rodeo
Town to town hey off I go
Texas to California
Yee haw, yipeea ki yea
Mama kisses my brow, I'm still her little boy
Says do whatever, whatever brings you joy
If it's a show they want, you go on and you give it up
It's not showing off if it's truly what you love
I'm a cowboy in the rodeo
Town to town hey off I go
Texas to California
Yee haw, yipeea ki yea
