Rodeo Girls

Joe Rainey - Tanya Tucker

© Glen Tan Music, BMI

On the side of the highway tryin' to sleep
Dreaming of a new love she knows she can't keep
He's back down the road three or four rodeos
Might have been her dream cowboy but she'll never know

Riding like the wind feelin' so alive
With the wind in her hair and the dust in her eyes
Spotlights are turning night into day
And just for a little while the pain goes away

But cowboys tell them they love them
But they're gone by the dawns early light
They come and they go but the pain never shows
Cause rodeo girls don't cry

She's given it up and gone home before
But it felt like a part of her died
No one could know but the Lord up above
That rodeo girls don't cry

Cowboys tell them they love them...

Rodeo girls don't cry
I thought everybody knew rodeo girls don't cry
