john denver - rita ballou lyrics
rita ballou
now she could dance that slow uvalde shuffle to some cowboy hustle
how she makes them trophy buckles shine, shine, shine
wild-eyed and mexican silvered, trickin’dumb ol’ cousin willard
into thinkin’ that he’s got her this time
chorus:
hill country honky-tonkin’ rita ballou
every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
backslidin’ barrel ridin’ rita ballou
ain’t a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you
she’s a rawhide rope and velvet mixture walkin’ talkin’ texas texture
high timin’ barroom fixture kind of a girl
she’s the queen of cowboys look at ol’ willard grinnin’ now, boys
you’d a-thought there’s less fools in this world
chorus:
hill country honky-tonkin’ rita ballou
every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
backslidin’ barrel ridin’ rita ballou
ain’t a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you
good luck, willard, and here’s to ya
here’s to rita and i hope she’ll do ya
right all night
lord, i wish i was the fool in your shoes
chorus
hill country honky-tonkin’ rita ballou
every beer joint in town has played the fool for you
backslidin’ barrel ridin’ rita ballou
ain’t a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you
