Rusty Spurs

Rusty spurs a hangin' from a nail their on the wall

Cold winds a blowin' and the snow begins to fall

Old man a dreamin' in his rockin' chair

Thinkin' bout the days gone by wishin' he was there

Rodeo you take a boy and make a man so tall

Drink his youth and cast him by the way

What's he gonna do now that he's through

But sit and dream about the good old days

He used to rodeo and ride 'em mighty fine

Now he's old and crippled but he rides on in his mind

And I can tell, rodeo, you're doin' the same to me

I feel like I'm fifty but I'm only twenty-three

Rodeo you take a boy...

Old picture album he keeps there by his side

Holds cherised mem'ries of broncs he used to ride

He thinks about his old friends and where they are today

Are they still living or have they passed away

Rodeo you take a boy...
