Rodriguez For A Night

I once rode with an angel
Through the arroyo called "Dry Run"
Until one day she made it clear
That I could never be the one
And then she met the outlaw Rodriguez
It was then that her heart took flight

Well, I would sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night

I confess he had some qualities
That might attract a foolish girl
An effortless charisma
And a clever way with the world
Now, I'm just a drugstore cowboy
You know I'll never be Mister Right

Still, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night

In a course of time I married
Decided to settle down
I was getting too old to chase that dream
And way too tired to kick around

But if the Devil still wants to talk a deal
I'd be willing to curse the light
Yes, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez
Still, I'd sell my soul if I could only be
Rodriguez for just one night
