Well up and down these empty streets
out there in the noonday heat
dusty hair and tired feet
wondering about her
Kicking them old tin cans
clicking sticks along the fence
wondering where the good times went
I'm not really sure
A rodeo boy
in one horse town
And down at the old cafe
people throwing looks my way
I guess they don't know what to say
since they heard the news
A small town boy a city girl
she took him right out of his world
left him standing on the curb
now he's got the blues
A rodeo boy
in one horse town
So I don't ride anymore
my saddle hangs behind the door
my boots are scattered on the floor
I walk around in shoes
I guess I could catch the train
but I'm hoping that her mind will change
hoping she'll come back again
I guess I'm just a fool
A rodeo boy
in one horse town
