| Not another existential cowboy
|
| And no more «California champagne»
|
| Not another saddle tramp --
|
| Sick, sore, lonely, and out of place
|
| Cryin' in his coffee ice cream (come on)
|
| Edith cannot fix another engine
|
| Nor paint another face on a rubber can clown (woo woo woo)
|
| She takes another temp job
|
| But in her secret heart, she rides!
|
| She’s just a sad sweetheart of the rodeo
|
| Not an urban legend now
|
| Sad sweetheart of the rodeo
|
| Give it a rest, give it a rest, give it a bad night’s sleep
|
| Norman says that you could take a Valium
|
| (or maybe something stronger)
|
| 'Cause he doesn’t understand, uh
|
| How you get so excited watching 'The Lusty Men'
|
| «The Marlboro Man died of cancer
|
| And he wasn’t a rocket scientist when he was healthy, ha ha ha.»
|
| She took one last gulp of his soft city condescension
|
| And blasted off from his little launch pad to parts west
|
| Sad sweetheart of the rodeo
|
| Not an urban legend now
|
| Sad sweetheart of the rodeo
|
| (lonesome cowboy Bill, where are you?)
|
| Sad sweetheart of the rodeo
|
| Not an urban legend now
|
| Sad sweetheart of the rodeo |
