1)
[G/f#]
I like your twisted point of view, Mike
I like your questioning eyebrows
[G/f#]
You've made it pretty clear what you like
It's only fair to tell you now
Verse
2)
that I leave early in the morning
and I won't be back till next year
I see that kiss-me pucker forming
but maybe you should plug it with a beer, cause
Chorus
[G/f#]
Papa was a rodeo - Mama was a rock'n'roll band
[G/f#]
I could play guitar and rope a steer before I learned to stand
[G/f#]
Home was anywhere with diesel gas - Love was a trucker's hand
[G/f#]
Never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
Before you kiss me you should know
Papa was a rodeo

Verse
1)
The light reflecting off the mirror ball
looks like a thousand swirling eyes
They make me think I shouldn't be here at all
You know, every minute someone dies
Verse
2)
What are we doing in this dive bar
How can you live in a place like this
Why don't you just get into my car
and I'll take you away I'll take that kiss now, but

Verse
2)
And now it's 55 years later
We've had the romance of the century
After all these years wrestling gators
I still feel like crying when I think of what you said to me
Chorus
[G/f#]
Papa was a rodeo
Outro
What a coincidence, your Papa was a rodeo too.
