Took my last fall in San Diego |
| [00:17.900] |
Bus headed north one headed south |
| [00:24.030] |
I call a farm in Colorado |
| [00:29.040] |
And I lift a dusty pay phone to my mouth |
| [00:35.600] |
She says hello I say it's me hon |
| [00:41.470] |
Sorry I stayed away so long |
| [00:46.530] |
Tell the kids thier old man's through with playin' rodeo |
| [00:52.780] |
Cause if it's alright with you I'm comin' home |
| [00:59.530] |
Well there's silence on the line |
| [01:02.290] |
She says you sure did take your time |
| [01:04.860] |
But I still need a man for the things a man is good for |
| [01:12.130] |
You know how it is raisin' crops and raisin' kids |
| [01:17.270] |
Demands a man at least as fit as you are |
| [01:23.030] |
So come on git on home there's hay that needs a mowin' |
| [01:28.650] |
A boy that needs a whippin' and a hundred things to do |
| [01:34.970] |
I hope you've finally found your mind |
| [01:38.030] |
To leave that rodeo behind |
| [01:40.720] |
I've spent half my life just waitin' here for you |
| [01:50.480] |
I guess that nows the time I'd better tell her |
| [01:56.100] |
Hon I've got this old friend that's here with me |
| [02:01.530] |
He used to be a cowboy and a good one so they say |
| [02:07.790] |
But now his legs are crippled he can't walk you see |
| [02:13.280] |
But hon you ought to hear him tell his stories |
| [02:19.100] |
Sing the old songs play the guitar too |
| [02:24.060] |
I'd really like to show him Colorado |
| [02:30.120] |
But I thought I'd better leave it up to you |
| [02:36.990] |
Well there's silence on the line |
| [02:40.310] |
And now I hear her sayin' |
| [02:42.930] |
Babe I only need a man for the things a man is good for |
| [02:50.120] |
And you know how it is a place just half this big |
| [02:55.810] |
Demands a man at least as fit as you are |
| [03:01.200] |
Put yourself in his place it'd awful hard to face |
| [03:06.200] |
All the chores and work and nothing he could do |
| [03:12.020] |
If you want to know my mind leave that rodeo bum behind |
| [03:17.450] |
Don't waste our time I'm waitin' here for you |
| [03:27.140] |
Well cryin's just for kids I put down the phone |
| [03:32.770] |
Fumble with my crutches movin' slow |
| [03:37.950] |
I wish that I was on the bus that's Colorado bound |
| [03:43.640] |
And I hope the weather's nice in Mexico |
