Lyrics
- Critters that you gotta wrangle,
- Cowboy suits with perty spangles,
- Boots with spurs that jingle jangle,
- That's a rodeo!
- Tight blue jeans you gotta squeeze in,
- But they sure look mighty pleasin'!
- Big belt buckles are always in season!
- That's a rodeo!
- Rodeo... (rodeo...), rodeo... (rodeo...)
- Yippie ti yay! Yippie ti yo!
- Rodeo... (rodeo...), rodeo... (rodeo...)
- Yippie ti yay! Yippie ti yo!
- Ride that critter, don't be no quitter! Hold on tight with all your might!
- Yeeeeeeeeeeeee-Ha!
- That's a rodeo!
- Tractor pulls and big ol' bulls,
- Line dancin', horses prancin',
- Barrel racin', bareback ridin',
- Bronco bustin', aluminum siding
- That's a rodeo!
- Rodeo... (rodeo...), rodeo... (rodeo...)
- Yippie ti yay! Yippie ti yo!
- Rodeo... (rodeo...), rodeo... (rodeo...)
- Yippie ti yay! Yippie ti yo!
- [instrumental break]
- [song slows down] And don't forget who makes us laugh, when we're feelin' down:
- The happy, slappy, sunny, funny good ol' Rodeo Clown!
