Songtext von Queen Of The Big Rodeo

Gather 'round cowboys I'll tell you a tale A story that's hard to be told Of a trick ridin' cowgril we loved and we called The queen of the big roder Wherever she went she was always acclaimed As the greatest of trick ridin' girls Perfection and beauty were her's all alone She was strickly the best in the world Cowboys and cowgirls remarked of her charm And a smile that brightened the world Admired and chosen by many a man As the best of the trick ridin' girls One night in Houston the crowd was so big There was forty-five thousand or more She had just about finished her act for the night One more trick the crowd waited for A dangerous trick at the horse's full speed A trick that had never been tried Cowboys and cowgirls both knew if she failed If she fell she could easily die The ride was perfection and almost complete Suddenly somethin' went wrong The sinch gave away and she lost control And at full speed she fell to the ground Not one muscle moved as she lay where she fell She's unconscious, one bronc buster said But the doctor removed any doubt from our minds When he said, the young cowgirl was dead Not one livin' soul in the crowd made a move They all knew that somethin' was wrong As they took her away from the place where she lay They knew the young cowgirl was gone Cowboys just stood there with hats in their hands Their heads were bowed ever so low Not one eye was dry as we whispered, goodbye To the queen of the big rodeo
