When the gate swings open
I’m hopin’ for a helluva ride.
A great eight seconds
Somethin’ close to suicide.
 
I guess I’m ready to go
Ring the bell, start the show
Get ‘em up! (come on boys)
THIS IS RODEO!
 
When the buzzer sounds 
I’ll be ridin’ right on top
With a whole lotta skill
And a little bit of luck
 
I know I’m ready to go
Ring the bell, start the show
Get ‘em up! (come on boys)
THIS IS RODEO!
 
And I’m fallin’ down on my
ASK me if it hurts like
HELLO, yes I’m feelin’ fine.
Gonna dust my self off
Hold my head up
Show a little cowboy pride.
 
Well I’m black and blue 
From my hat down to my boots
Let me do it again
I’ve got nothin’ left to lose.
 
I’m rough ‘n ready to go
Ring the bell, start the show
Get ‘em up! (come on boys)
THIS IS RODEO! 
(Repeat)
 
Breakdown***
 
Yes I’m rough ‘n ready to go
Ring the bell, start the show … THIS IS RODEO!
