One More Rodeo

By Dunn Clement

Intro: G Em C D (play twice)

Chorus:

G Em

She couldn’t stand to see him leave again,

C D

He couldn’t stand to stay when he knew he could win.

G Em

She cried and pleaded and begged him not to go,

C D G

But he promised her darlin’ just one more rodeo.

G Em

When they got married she thought he’d settle down,

C D

And they’d have a little ranch on the edge of town.

G Em

He rode bucking horses and he rode ‘em real well,

C D

He’d always bring home a check or it’d come in the mail.

G Em

He stayed healthy he was in his prime,

C D

But she knew it was just a matter of time.

Chorus

G Em

He left for Cheyenne even though she cried,

C D

He drew a decent bronc but got a choice for a re-ride.

G Em

He was sittin’ third when he started that ride,

C D

And he drew a rank caballo named “Skoal Suicide.”

G Em

He rode him eight seconds and scored a winnin’ “95”,

C D

But that horse flipped over and the cowboy died.

Chorus (last line a little different)

C D C D

But he promised her darlin’ just one more rodeo…………

C D G

Yeah he promised her darlin’ this was my last rodeo.
