Rodeo Queen

We pull into town Try to find the fairgrounds Park this Cadillac out back Behind the loading chutes Finally made the big show Traveling with the rodeo I'm one of the boys that make sure nobody pays with their Life ain't easy for a joker like me I've got a smile painted on my face It's only make believe She's got me where she wants me Got me blinkin' when they call for the gate I'm afraid someone's gonna get hurt 'Cause I'm not thinking straight I'm in love with the rodeo queen A clown in love with the rodeo queen Every night the crowd goes wild when they see her ridin' Shining like a diamond, she don't even know my name I try to turn my feelings off before they load the roughstock Gotta get my stuff together, take a shot and forget How much time stands still when the bull starts spinning When the bull starts spinning When the bull starts spinning She's got me where she wants me Got me blinking when they call for the gate I'm afraid someone's gonna get hurt 'Cause I'm not thinking straight I'm in love with the rodeo queen A clown in love with the rodeo queen And baby bye, tell you right I might work up the nerve to tell 'er right Ain't just some fool in a barrel, naw There's a real heart beating underneath my Over-sized wranglers, yellow suspenders I might look like it but I ain't a pretender Naw, naw I gotta tell 'er, gotta tell 'er Gotta tell 'er that She's got me where she wants me Got me blinking when they call for the gate I'm afraid someone's gonna get hurt 'Cause I'm not thinking straight She's got me where she wants me Got me blinking when they call for the gate I'm afraid someone's gonna get hurt 'Cause I'm not thinking straight I'm in love with the rodeo queen A clown in love with the rodeo queen
