| There I was in my cowboy boots
|
| Me and the wife just pulled up roots
|
| From the USA
|
| All the way to Tokyo
|
| That’s as far as our money would go
|
| So that’s where we stayed
|
| Well, no work for an American man
|
| Somebody said I could make some yen as
|
| King of the Rodeo, king of the rodeo
|
| Took me awhile to get the hang
|
| Of holding on to a pissed off Japan of a cow, ow
|
| A buddhist priest said think of it as floating
|
| Close your eyes, become one with the loathing
|
| It has for you
|
| But sure enough the guy was right
|
| The less I tried the more I stayed upright
|
| I’m the king of the rodeo, king of the rodeo
|
| See how they love me, see how they cheer
|
| See how they toast me with their weird-ass beer
|
| I’m super cool, nah they ain’t cheering for the bull
|
| If I could only understand what they say
|
| When I walk down the street
|
| And they look the other way
|
| I guess it’s some kind of sign of honor
|
| Now we’re rich beyond our dreams
|
| But we’re thinking about going back so I can be a
|
| King of the rodeo, king of the rodeo
|
| Rich and famous ain’t enough for me
|
| I’m an orangutan in a monkey tree
|
| King of the rodeo, king of the rodeo |
