Standard (EADGBE)
When I was just a very young lad
I walked up and I told my dad
A bareback riders what I wanna be
I want the whole world to know about me
In the rodeo arena I'll take my stand
I wanna be known as a rodeo man
I'll come flyin' from the chute with my spurs up high
Chaps and boots reachin for the sky
Spurrin wild with my head flung back
You'll ask who's that well that's Bareback Jack
You'll ask who's that well that's Bareback Jack
The years of boyhood now have passed
Didn't take long I learned the tricks real fast
Now I'm goin down the road with my rodeo gear
And I hope to make the finals in just a few years
And when my chance comes I'll give it a whirl
Try to win the championship of the world
I'll come flyin' from the chute with my spurs up high
Chaps and boots reachin for the sky
You'll all know me, I'm Bareback Jack
You'll all know me, I'm Bareback Jack
Well here I am, I'm a-layin in bed
The son of a buck jumped onto my head
I'm a-layin here dyin and a-hurtin real bad
And I wish I'd listened to my old dad
When he said son you better quit foolin around
Your gonna get your guts stomped into the ground
You'll come flyin from the chute with your tail up high
That old buckin horse is gonna throw you in the sky
And when you come down your gonna break your back
Then we'll all know you as Old Crippled Up Jack
In a wheelchair with a broken back
Enjoy
