Same Ol' Bull

I'd been laid up a couple months, figured that I'd healed back up enough to ride

So I entered up in Omaha, road was good, not much law and easy drive

I walked in to pay my entry fee, Ms. Carrie said, "You can't compete

'Til you pay that fine you got in San Antone"

Same ol' bull, same ol' rodeo

I paid up and asked her, "Who'd I get?"

She said they hadn't drew 'em yet, won't be long

So I walked out behind the chute

See how Pistol and the crew were gettin' along

They started in harrassin' me, "She'd finally let him off the leash"

And a bunch of other wore out jokes

Same ol' bull, same ol' rodeo

Where the winner buys, and the women cry

'Cause their cowboy just ain't never home

It ain't no life, it's the only life I know

Same ol' bull, same ol' rodeo

Well I went back to check the draw, they had it hangin' on the wall and I'll be damned

And I thought, "What the hell the chance is, that somethin' like this happened to an honest man?"

I drew one call Devil's Dream, that sorry hookin' SOB that put me out of work two months ago

Same ol' bull, same ol' rodeo

Where the winner buys, and the women cry

'Cause their cowboy just ain't never home

It ain't no life, it's the only life I know

Same ol' bull, same ol' rodeo

It's the same ol' bull, same ol' rodeo
