I went to the rodeo,
The other night.
What I saw was incredible,
A wondrous sight
A long tall cowboy
Drove into the ring.
He didn't ride bulls,
And he sure couldn’t sing.
What he did was ride
A good Dunn hoss.
Herded four wild mustangs,
And showed 'em who's boss.
He cracked a long bull whip,
And made it really pop.
Then had all them mustangs
Climb to the top.
Of his long gooseneck trailer
Hitched to his truck.
They just stood there,
Now sun of a buck.
Then a longhorned stag
He too made go up.
That is him an old dog
And a spotted pup.
Then him and ol' Joker
Went up there too.
Now there's six critters
and John,
Entertainin' me and
you.
On top of a trailer,
Up in the sky.
I think I could do that.
But I ain't gonna try!
When John made
All them critters come down.
He went up again,
And spun ol' Joker arround.
He stayed up there
As the truck and trailer
drove out,
The croud was a'standin'
And givin' a shout.
Now I think I could do that
Without causing no harm
But John Payne's done done
it.
And he's got no right arm.
