Rockinghorse Rider Lyrics

He's been riding his way to the top

For years he's worked the rodeo

He took the world like a bull by the horns

But now he curses the day that he was born

Cause the home that he once had

Is just a broken dream

That makes him sad

But the Rodeo life he lives must go on

He's a Rockinghorse Rider

And It's taking him nowhere fast

Cause the more that he wins

The more that he comes in last

He's a Rockinghorse Rider

He's blinded by the dust from the show

And the rocking of the rhythm he's in

Is out of control

The wife and the son he left behind

He's missing more with the passing of time

But the title that he gave em all up for

Doesn't mean as much as it did before

And the toy Rockinghorse

That he sent to his boy

Hasn't brought that child

One bit of joy

Cause it reminds him of the ride

His Daddy's on

He's a Rockinghorse Rider

And It's taking him nowhere fast

Cause the more that he wins

The more that he comes in last

He's a Rockinghorse Rider

He's blinded by the dust from the show

And the rocking of the rhythm he's in

Is out of control

Yeah, The rocking of the rhythm he's in

Is out of control
