magnetic fields – papa was a rodeo lyrics
i like your twisted point of view, mike
i like your questioning eyebrows
you’ve made it pretty clear what you like
it’s only fair to tell you now
that i leave early in the morning
and i won’t be back till next year
i see that kiss-me pucker forming
but maybe you should plug it with a beer, ’cause
papa was a rodeo, mama was a rock ‘n’ roll band
i could play guitar and rope a steer before i learned to stand
home was anywhere with diesel gas, love was a trucker’s hand
never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
before you kiss me you should know, papa was a rodeo
the light reflecting off the mirror ball
looks like a thousand swirling eyes
they make me think i shouldn’t be here at all
you know, every minute someone dies
what are we doing in this dive bar?
how can you live in a place like this?
why don’t you just get into my car?
and i’ll take you away i’ll take that kiss now, but
papa was a rodeo, mama was a rock ‘n’ roll band
i could play guitar and rope a steer before i learned to stand
home was anywhere with diesel gas, love was a trucker’s hand
never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
before you kiss me you should know, papa was a rodeo
and now it’s 55 years later
we’ve had the romance of the century
after all these years wrestling gators
i still feel like crying when i think of what you said to me
papa was a rodeo, mama was a rock ‘n’ roll band
i could play guitar and rope a steer before i learned to stand
home was anywhere with diesel gas, love was a trucker’s hand
never stuck around long enough for a one night stand
before you kiss me you should know, papa was a rodeo
what a coincidence, your papa was a rodeo too
