Bandy the Rodeo Clown

Who was once a bull-hookin' son of a gun?
Now who keeps a pint hid out behind chute number one?
Who was ridin' high 'til a pretty girl rode him to the ground?
Any kid knows where to find me, I'm Bandy the rodeo clown

In the ridin' and the ropin', I was closin' in on number one
Now in dreams at night, I ride on that silver saddle I never won
Since she left me, the whiskey takes me to the rodeo ground
All the cowboys think I'm handy, I'm Bandy the rodeo clown

Lord, I could ride 'em all
Bulls and broncs knew I was the boss
But the ride that woman took me on
Broke a whole lot more than this old cowboy's bones
Now the tears on my makeup melts my painted smile into a frown
Oh, the girls think I'm a dandy, I'm Bandy the rodeo clown

Lord, I could ride 'em all
Bulls and broncs knew I was the boss
But the ride that woman took me on
Broke a whole lot more than this old cowboy's bones
Now the tears on my makeup melts my painted smile into a frown
The crowd thinks I'm a dandy, I'm Bandy the rodeo clown
Lord, the crowd thinks I'm a dandy, I'm Bandy the rodeo clown
