Shotgun Rider Lyrics

Horses are running wide open, I just gotta ride To those honky tonk bars that stay open way past closing time Songs about free thinkin' and drinking sure light my fire That flame leaves a scar on my heart like an old branding iron
She said, "Rodeo man, where are you going? Don't you know that the life of a cowboy is no good alone? If you tear down that fence of rusty barbed wire Then I'll lay down beside you and be your shotgun rider"
Yesterday's nothing but dust I brush off my boots While I'm wearing out roads don't you know that I'm sure missing you? When I leave you'll be wondering when I'll be back again Between Texas and ranchers and old friends where do you fit in?
She said, "Rodeo man, where are you going? Don't you know that the life of a cowboy is no good alone? If you tear down that fence of rusty barbed wire Then I'll lay down beside you and be your shotgun rider"
Hey, rodeo man, where are you going? Don't you know that the life of a cowboy is no good alone? If you tear down that fence of rusty barbed wire Then I'll lay down beside you and be your shotgun rider
Woman, come lay down beside me And be my shotgun rider
