Rhinestone kid on a freeway star
An '87 pick-up an' a red guitar
Playin' like an angel with a broken grin
A song o true love fo' his girl Darlene

They haven't seen each other for a year or so
Man, he misses her like we all miss that TV show
Where he first performed that love song ‘bout a year ago
Well, if ya haven't heard it yet then this is how it goes…

RODEO-uh-oh-oh-oh
Like the buffalos do it by the wishing well
‘Cause they ain't got time no money for a cheap motel, yeah
RODEO-uh-oh-oh-oh
Tell me what sweeter thing could happen to a boy an' a girl?
We gotta do it like mechanical wabbits from hell, yeah

It was the sweetest song playin' on the raid-eeh-oh
From the edge of Alabama down to Me-hee-ko
It was a number one hit but Darlene didn't know
Whom her fav'rite song was fo
But everytime she hears it, her heart, like a gong,
Would tremble for the man for whom she longs
…for whom she longs….
And ‘en she starts to sing along…

RODEO-uh-oh-oh-oh
We gotta do it for a reason, gotta do it for fun
We gotta sparkle like tequila in the hot…hot sun, yeah!
RODEO-uh-oh-oh-oh
We gotta do it like Sinatra used to do “My Way”
An' in the background there's that Beck dude singin' Odelay
