My Last Rodeo

He was runnin' on fumes Laid up in that hospital room Never seen him look so old He don't know how to quit No, he keep givin' it hell right up 'til the very end 'Cause that's the only way he knows And I could feel the truth in his old calloused hands When he took his last breath, looked at me and said This ain't my last rodeo No, it's just time for this old man to get this show on the road When life throws you off your saddle Don't think you lost the battle Just climb back up and turn 'nother row The good Lord might wanna call this cowboy home But this ain't my last rodeo He said a man is Only as good as the woman that he's got standin' beside him So, I thank the good Lord every day 'Cause mine is Somewhere up there and waitin' on me to ride in Boy, that'll be the day And I'm so close I can smell her perfume And I can't wait to watch her light up the room So this ain't my last rodeo No, it's just time for this old man to get this show on the road When life throws you off your saddle Don't mean you lost the battle Just climb back up and turn 'nother row The good Lord might wanna call this cowboy home But this ain't my last rodeo I know my time is comin' soon So all I'm askin' you to do Is bury me in my boots 'Cause this ain't my last rodeo No, it's just time for this old man to get this show on the road When life throws you off your saddle It don't mean you lost the battle So don't shed a tear for me now, when I go The good Lord might wanna call this cowboy home This ain't my last rodeo This ain't my last rodeo This ain't my last rodeo
