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."
