Well, my car broke down it's in the ditch
Wish I was the son of someone rich
I'd throw hundred dollar bills out on the road
And I'd catch me a ride to the rodeo
There's a mule deer layin' by the road ahead
Well, he ain't sleepin' he's damn sure dead
Venison fryin' in the blazin' sun
Hey, I need a ride come on someone
Yeah, my car broke down
I ain't got no money, stuck out on the road
Hey, I need a ride now
Won't somebody, take me to the rodeo
There's a buzzard circlin' up in the sky
And he's lookin' at me with them beady eyes
Well, I don't know but I've got a hunch
He'd rather have me than that deer for lunch
Right now, I wish, I'd stayed in school
But I had to be a rodeo cowboy fool
And I'll bet my daddy'd sure be proud
If he could take a look at his son right now
Yeah, my car broke down
I ain't got no money, stuck out on the road
Hey, I need a ride now
Won't somebody, take me to the rodeo
Here comes a blonde in a Cadillac
She got the top rolled down and her hair tied back
She don't look, she don't even slow down
She just keeps them wheels rollin' around
Yeah, my car broke down
I ain't got no money, stuck out on the road
Hey, I need a ride now
Won't somebody, take me to the rodeo
I need a ride
Come on
Can you ride.
