Rodeo Romeo

And I hope she's mine for a while
Can't seem to fight that damn smile
That's piercing through me like kitchen draw knife
And one more dance is all I got
Then ill pop the question are you mine or not
Will you come with me, love and be my wife

And my Juliet
And ill be the Romeo
Lost in the haze of the rodeo
Wondering if all these bumps are worth all this dying time
I know what is
You and me and couple kids
Saving up money for the auction bids
So, we can buy your daddy's block, a long while away from Proserpine
If you don't want all this, I'll just go
But if you do I'm your rodeo Romeo

We can tell our kids how we met
Watching drunks spill drinks on cracked cement
At a bar that had no legal reason to be a bar
You told me your name and I told you mine
Laughed and talked through cigarettes and wine
Living young wild and free in the back of my old car
I taught you how to swing that rope
And where to point your hand when you let go
And I always kept you smiling when you missed a million times
Don't know what it is quite about you
But you keep my head from sinking to the blue
I tried to write this song for you although it barely rhymes

to my Juliet
And ill be the Romeo
Lost in the haze of the rodeo
Wondering if all these bumps are worth all this dying time
I know what is
You and me and couple kids
Saving up money for the auction bids
So, we can buy your daddy's block, a long while away from Proserpine
If you don't want all this, I'll just go
But if you do I'm your rodeo Romeo

I'm never left alone with your photo on my telephone
That always sees you smiling thru and thru
And if I'm ever miles away, just play this song and it goes this way

my Juliet
ill be your Romeo
Lost in the haze of the rodeo
Wondering if all these bumps are worth all this dying time
I know what is
You and me and couple kids
Saving up money for the auction bids
So, we can buy your daddy's block, a long while away from Proserpine
If you don't want all this, I'll just go
But if you do I'm your rodeo Romeo
