Queen of the Rodeo

Donna Weiss, Jackie DeShannon

[Verse 1]
We pulled into Waco throwin' smoke and dust
Our pictures were on posters advertisin' us
I picked up the entry fee, got myself some gear
Gave her twenty dollars, Rena bought the beer

[Chorus]
She was a queen of the rodeo
He was just a ten-gallon, ten-gallon joe
She was a queen of the rodeo
He was just a ten-gallon, ten-gallon joe

[Verse 2]
Rena kept her hair up 'til the judges called her name
And when she let it fall down they went insane
She rode the Appaloosa, oh she danced him to the ground
He took her through the wires, hell we busted that whole town

[Chorus]
She was a queen of the rodeo
He was just a ten-gallon, ten-gallon joe
She was a queen of the rodeo
He was just a ten-gallon, ten-gallon joe

[Bridge]
Days and nights got spent like lovers
And closer that two brothers
Her eyes sparkled like the Fourth of July
For a poor man's rider
An old dust biter
Who went through fire

[Verse 3]
We pulled out of Waco throwin' smoke and dust
Our pictures were on posters advertisin' us
Up and down the old fairgrounds the truckers bowed their heads
Against the wind we never knew when me and the queen were kids

[Outro]
She was a queen of the rodeo
He was just a ten-gallon, ten-gallon joe
