bobby bare - appaloosa rider lyrics

Loading...

well, somewhere back around thirty six
i was standin’ knee deep in the oklahoma sticks
pickin’ them jimmie rodgers’ licks like i owned ’em
and the girls in town loved what i’d do
i had choctaw hair and eyes of blue
they’d call me baby i was six foot two and looked lonesome.

then yonder come a man in a big ol’ car
with a black baret and a big cigar
he said son you’re a natural cowboy star for sure
he looked at me and he said sign
i looked at him and i said fine
i wrote my name on the dotted line and i became
the appaloosa rider, appaloosa rider, appaloosa rider
hero of the plains.

soon i was smilin’ from magazines
my head slicked down with vaseline
and all those bobby-sox babies’ screams would ring
they’d pack ’em in like main sardines
and stand ’em in the mezzanines
to see me ride cross the creen and sing.

i hundred fights i musta won
a thousand bullets in my gun
and my hat staeyd on through all the fun and glory
but my real life pony had its hood adorned
with a big ol’ set of western h-rns
while all america ate popcorn and marveled at the one and only
appaloosa rider, appaloosa rider, appaloosa rider
hero of the plains.

well, a real life villain had crossed the line
so i crossed hollywood and vine
and signed another dotted line my handle
but when i come back most all the noise
was made for hoppys genes and roys
and hollywood had more cowboys than scandals.

so here i am in the oklahoma sticks
and out of all my old sidekicks
jack daniesls is the one who sticks around
but old friends and fans have begun to write
and i learned why the other night
when i woke up to a tv fight
the hero won and his hat stayed white
and guess who rode across my sight
i tell you i was dynamite
appaloosa rider, appaloosa rider, appaloosa rider.

appaloosa rider, appaloosa rider, appaloosa rider…
