Intro: C 
 
I own (C) this horse and saddle 
And (F) that ole Cadillac(C) 
This broken down horse trailer 
And the (D) clothes that are on my back (G)

But it's all that I can show,(G) 
For (F) 17 yrs (C) makin my livin' (G) ridin the rodeo(C). 
 
My (C) wife left me 5 yrs ago 
In (F) one of them rodeo towns(C) 
I c-ain't say that I blame her much, 
She just (D) wanted to settle down.(G) 
Oh God (F)how I miss that woman(C) 
And it hurt so to see her go.(G) 
But if (G) I was smart I woulda (C) stuck by her 
But I'm (G) hooked on this rodeo.(C)

(s/s??)- I ain't sure whether its "shore to shore" or "show to show". 
The album never came with lyrics.
