Make them as they play
That's alright
That's okay
I've seen it all before
They smile at you and shake your hand
Then throw you out the door
All that I need to know
Well I loved it where the trumpets show
Won the ribbons at the Rodeo
But lost them on the way home
Oh when the cold wind blows
And I watch the stars and feel their glow
I realize that I'll never know
So down and out I go
Looking back along the trail
Thought I saw your face
Tired and worn
Your eyes turned gray
Tried to find a place
That's alright
That's okay
It's the only way to go
So smile at me and shake your head
As you stumble to the floor
All that I need to know
Well I loved where the trumpets show
Won the ribbons at the Rodeo
But lost them on my way home
Oh where the cold wind blows
And I watch the stars and feel their glow
I realize that I'll never know
So down and out I go
All that I need to know
Why I love it when they slam the door
Guess that's just the way it goes
At the rodeo
