Being a Rodeo Clown

As I was crossing the border, I bumped into him.
He was an odd kinda fella, but I did like him.
He said “I’m traveling the highway, hope I get there soon”
“The rodeo’s waitin’ for me there”
 
He told me sure and certain that the best of fun,
Is busting up a hat, firing off a cannon.
To save a rider’s life when dry’s about to run his luck
All part of bein’ a rodeo clown
 
I tell ‘em, step right up, lil’ critter come,
And I’ll teach ya somethin’ if you turn and chase me along.
Can’t ya see I’m not artistic, too smart, an’ a real comic
Cause I’m being a rodeo clown.
 
We spent a while like that, then he hadta go.
But left behind a message that forget I won’t.
What’s savage is hysterical, what’s treacherous is beautiful.
And what’s greatest is the rodeo.
 
He told me sure and certain that the best of fun,
Is busting up a hat, firing off a cannon.
To save a rider’s life when dry’s about to run his luck
All part of bein’ a rodeo clown
 
I tell ‘em, step right up, lil’ critter come,
And I’ll teach ya somethin’ if you turn and chase me along.
Can’t ya see I’m not artistic, too smart, an’ a real comic
Cause I’m being a rodeo clown.
 
I tell ‘em, step right up, lil’ critter come,
And I’ll teach ya somethin’ if you turn and chase me along.
Can’t ya see I’m not artistic, too smart, an’ a real comic
Cause I’m being a rodeo clown.
