  • Dear Rodeo
    I'd be lying if I tried to tell you I don't think about you
    After all the miles and the wild nights that we've been through
    Lord knows we had a few

    Dear Rodeo
    I'd like to say that I took the reins and rode away
    No regrets, no "left unsaids"
    Just turned the page
    Oh, but you know better, babe

    Between the almost had 'ems and broken bones
    The dream of the buckle I'll never put on
    I'm jaded, whoa, I hate it

    But somehow the highs outweigh the lows
    And I'd do it all again even though we both know
    I'd still have to let you go

    So dear Rodeo (yeah)
    I tried like hell to tell myself
    It was all your fault
    And I held on tight with all my might
    I just couldn't hang on
    And that's hard to hang your hat on

    Between the almost had 'ems and broken bones
    The dream of the buckle I'll never put on
    I'm jaded, whoa, how I hate it

    But somehow the highs outweigh the lows
    And I'd do it all again even though we both know
    I'd still have to let you go, yeah

    So dear Rodeo
    I'd like to think you miss me too
    But I know you don't
    Oh, but that don't change the past
    And that don't change the truth
    That I'm still in love with you
    Dear Rodeo

  • Nancy L Holly from Miami GardensJust started listening to 93Q and this was the first song. I go to the Davie Rodeo arena. One year they has long horn steers run up a ramp to the top of the semi. I love the bull riding and always wanted a pick of sneaker above the bull so I could say I did that... great song
