bronco billy
milsap, ronnie
each night in the spotlight i become ev'rybody's friend
with my fast guns and fast horses
then its fast girls and sloe gin
the wild west show is over and the big top's coming down
then it's on to another town
it's one hell of a life you chose
keep those spurs a jinglin'
'cause ev'ry cowboy knows
when you saddle your last pony
he'll be callin' by and by
and you'll ride that final round up
for the big boss in the sky
now the paint is peeling from the old carousel
and my sequin shirts don't fit as well
but when i see those little buckaroos waiting for me to begin
the years roll back and bronco billy becomes just a kid again
it's one hell of a life you chose
keep those spurs a jinglin'
'cause ev'ry cowboy knows
when you saddle your last pony
he'll be callin' by and by
and you'll ride that final round up
for the big boss in the sky
