National Finals Rodeo - Chris Ledoux[00:00:00]
A rodeo's just a rodeo after riding several years[00:00:09]
From ol' Cheyenne to Houston[00:00:13]
They never 'cause too much fear[00:00:15]
But let me tell you about one[00:00:19]
That will chill your very soul[00:00:21]
It happens in December[00:00:24]
When it's snowin' and it's cold[00:00:26]
In Oklahoma City[00:00:30]
There's a building of concrete[00:00:32]
It's where the toughest stock[00:00:34]
And men will gather and compete[00:00:36]
The points have all been tallied[00:00:40]
And the stock has all been brought[00:00:42]
We've got just two more hours[00:00:44]
'Cause it starts at eight o'clock[00:00:46]
It's the finals the NFR the series of the sport[00:00:50]
Hey rookie can you take ten head[00:00:55]
Have you got the heart[00:00:57]
You think you're a tough cowboy[00:01:00]
We'll find out in the end[00:01:03]
When that final whistle blows[00:01:05]
And the stock's all in the pen[00:01:07]
The coliseum's quiet except for the sounds[00:01:11]
Of cowboys getting ready[00:01:15]
And the workmen of the grounds[00:01:17]
The cowboys ask each other[00:01:21]
What each other's got[00:01:23]
Did you draw ol' necklace[00:01:26]
Or pluck old double Ought[00:01:28]
The tension now is mounting as the crowd starts pouring in[00:01:31]
A shiver goes all through me like[00:01:36]
From a cold cold wind[00:01:38]
I hear the horses comin' runnin' down the alleyway[00:01:42]
They're snortin' and a blowin'[00:01:46]
As men shut the sliding gates[00:01:48]
It's the finals the NFR[00:01:52]
The Series of the sport[00:01:54]
Hey rookie can you take ten head[00:01:56]
Have you got the heart[00:01:59]
You think you're a tough cowboy[00:02:02]
We'll find out in the end[00:02:04]
When that final whistle blows[00:02:06]
And the stock's all in the pen[00:02:08]
We had too much time a while ago[00:02:12]
But not enough time now[00:02:14]
The Anthem is now over[00:02:17]
The grand entry's going out[00:02:19]
I sit there on my bronc[00:02:22]
I'm ready and I wait[00:02:25]
I hear a chute suen open[00:02:27]
So I look out through the gate[00:02:29]
A horse comes boiling out[00:02:32]
And blows up at the roof[00:02:35]
And then there comes another kicking like a curly wolf[00:02:37]
I hear the chute boss holler[00:02:43]
Through the yelling of the crowd[00:02:45]
He says there's one ahead of you[00:02:47]
So you'd better get screwed down[00:02:49]
It's the finals the NFR[00:02:52]
The series of the sport[00:02:55]
Hey rookie can you take ten head[00:02:57]
Have you got the heart[00:02:59]
You think you're a tough cowboy[00:03:03]
We'll find out in the end[00:03:05]
When that final whistle blows[00:03:07]
And the stock's all in the pen[00:03:09]
I nod my head I'm in a daze[00:03:12]
The horse goes boiling out[00:03:15]
I run my spurrs into his neck[00:03:17]
And then I drag 'em out[00:03:19]
My mind is in a blur my eyes are seeing red[00:03:22]
The flank catch slams into my back[00:03:27]
His rump bangs on my head[00:03:29]
From somewhere in the background[00:03:33]
I can hear a buzzer sound[00:03:35]
My hand's jerked from the riggin[00:03:37]
And I crash into the ground[00:03:39]
I stumble to my feet as I stagger to the wall[00:03:43]
I wonder to myself is it really worth it all[00:03:47]
It's the finals the NFR[00:03:52]
The series of the sport[00:03:55]
Hey rookie can you take ten head[00:03:57]
Have you got the heart[00:04:00]
You think you're a tough cowboy[00:04:03]
We'll find out in the end[00:04:05]
When that final whistle blows[00:04:07]
And the stock's all in the pen[00:04:09]
It's the finals the NFR[00:04:12]
The series of the sport[00:04:15]
Hey rookie can you take ten head[00:04:17]
Have you got the heart[00:04:19]
You think you're a tough cowboy[00:04:23]
