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
