《National Finals Rodeo》歌词

[00:00:00] National Finals Rodeo - Chris Ledoux

[00:00:09] A rodeo's just a rodeo after riding several years

[00:00:13] From ol' Cheyenne to Houston

[00:00:15] They never 'cause too much fear

[00:00:19] But let me tell you about one

[00:00:21] That will chill your very soul

[00:00:24] It happens in December

[00:00:26] When it's snowin' and it's cold

[00:00:30] In Oklahoma City

[00:00:32] There's a building of concrete

[00:00:34] It's where the toughest stock

[00:00:36] And men will gather and compete

[00:00:40] The points have all been tallied

[00:00:42] And the stock has all been brought

[00:00:44] We've got just two more hours

[00:00:46] 'Cause it starts at eight o'clock

[00:00:50] It's the finals the NFR the series of the sport

[00:00:55] Hey rookie can you take ten head

[00:00:57] Have you got the heart

[00:01:00] You think you're a tough cowboy

[00:01:03] We'll find out in the end

[00:01:05] When that final whistle blows

[00:01:07] And the stock's all in the pen

[00:01:11] The coliseum's quiet except for the sounds

[00:01:15] Of cowboys getting ready

[00:01:17] And the workmen of the grounds

[00:01:21] The cowboys ask each other

[00:01:23] What each other's got

[00:01:26] Did you draw ol' necklace

[00:01:28] Or pluck old double Ought

[00:01:31] The tension now is mounting as the crowd starts pouring in

[00:01:36] A shiver goes all through me like

[00:01:38] From a cold cold wind

[00:01:42] I hear the horses comin' runnin' down the alleyway

[00:01:46] They're snortin' and a blowin'

[00:01:48] As men shut the sliding gates

[00:01:52] It's the finals the NFR

[00:01:54] The Series of the sport

[00:01:56] Hey rookie can you take ten head

[00:01:59] Have you got the heart

[00:02:02] You think you're a tough cowboy

[00:02:04] We'll find out in the end

[00:02:06] When that final whistle blows

[00:02:08] And the stock's all in the pen

[00:02:12] We had too much time a while ago

[00:02:14] But not enough time now

[00:02:17] The Anthem is now over

[00:02:19] The grand entry's going out

[00:02:22] I sit there on my bronc

[00:02:25] I'm ready and I wait

[00:02:27] I hear a chute suen open

[00:02:29] So I look out through the gate

[00:02:32] A horse comes boiling out

[00:02:35] And blows up at the roof

[00:02:37] And then there comes another kicking like a curly wolf

[00:02:43] I hear the chute boss holler

[00:02:45] Through the yelling of the crowd

[00:02:47] He says there's one ahead of you

[00:02:49] So you'd better get screwed down

[00:02:52] It's the finals the NFR

[00:02:55] The series of the sport

[00:02:57] Hey rookie can you take ten head

[00:02:59] Have you got the heart

[00:03:03] You think you're a tough cowboy

[00:03:05] We'll find out in the end

[00:03:07] When that final whistle blows

[00:03:09] And the stock's all in the pen

[00:03:12] I nod my head I'm in a daze

[00:03:15] The horse goes boiling out

[00:03:17] I run my spurrs into his neck

[00:03:19] And then I drag 'em out

[00:03:22] My mind is in a blur my eyes are seeing red

[00:03:27] The flank catch slams into my back

[00:03:29] His rump bangs on my head

[00:03:33] From somewhere in the background

[00:03:35] I can hear a buzzer sound

[00:03:37] My hand's jerked from the riggin

[00:03:39] And I crash into the ground

[00:03:43] I stumble to my feet as I stagger to the wall

[00:03:47] I wonder to myself is it really worth it all

[00:03:52] It's the finals the NFR

[00:03:55] The series of the sport

[00:03:57] Hey rookie can you take ten head

[00:04:00] Have you got the heart

[00:04:03] You think you're a tough cowboy

[00:04:05] We'll find out in the end

[00:04:07] When that final whistle blows

[00:04:09] And the stock's all in the pen

[00:04:12] It's the finals the NFR

[00:04:15] The series of the sport

[00:04:17] Hey rookie can you take ten head

[00:04:19] Have you got the heart

[00:04:23] You think you're a tough cowboy
