"Keeping Rosie Proud Of Me" lyrics

Keeping Rosie Proud Of Me

We've come a long way on this East Texas highway
And I'm feeling awfully old at forty three
Sure am glad that Rosie's here with me

I guess I showed them what I could do
When I rode everything in Houston
Boy was Rosie proud of me

I'm just a broken down old rodeo rider
Trying to make just one more show
Shoulda hung it up a long time ago

Cause I've been kicked
And I've been down
And busted to my knees
Just a keeping Rosie proud of me

You see Rosie's young and pretty
She likes to have her fun
If she don't have it with me
She gonna have it with someone

I gotta finish in the money
So we can go on to Cheyenne
And I can go on being Rosie's man

You see Rosie's young and pretty
She likes to have her fun
If she don't have it with me
She gonna have it with someone

I gotta finish in the money, Lord
So we can go on to Cheyenne
And I can go on being Rosie's man

I can go on being Rosie's man
