I met him in Wyomin'
At the Cheyenne rodeo
Just a kid in pigtails 
Of thirteen at the time
I remember how I cheered the day 
He rode a horse called midnight
And I vowed that someday 
That cowboy would be mine

I followed him to Denver 
Where we became good friends
We'd sit around the shoots 
And talk while he was killin' time
He'd laugh and tell me stories 
But he never mentioned stayin'
For the next town and the rodeo 
Were always on his mind

He's a rodeo cowboy, he follows the circuit
Where top money's paid, that's where he'll be found
The only thing he owns is a horse and silver saddle
Rodeo cowboy, he'll never settle down

In Salt Lake City, Utah
He told me that he loved me
But still I knew he wasn't born 
To be the settlin' kind
For with tomorrow's sun 
He'd pack up that old freighter
And leave all thoughts of me and love 
A hundred miles behind

The last time that I saw him 
Was in Amarillo, Texas
I'm still in love with him 
Although he can't be mine
But I'll always keep that 
Shiny silver buckle that he gave me
Reads 'All Around Cowboy 
Of Nineteen-sixty-nine'

He's a rodeo cowboy, he follows the circuit
Where top money's paid, that's where he'll be found
The only thing he owns is a horse and silver saddle
Rodeo cowboy, he'll never settle down
He's a rodeo cowboy, he'll never settle down...
