Steer Rider's Blues - Corb Lund

I got the boy steer rider’s blues

I got my name in the rodeo news

I can’t explain it to the girls at school

But I think it’s pretty damn cool

I won a bunch of buckles by the time I turned fourteen

And still the pretty ladies don’t want nothin' to do with me

Last weekend I showed 'em how

They had us on some ornery old cows

I kicked her in the belly once

And she gave me a couple of good jumps

She turned back both ways and they marked me a 73

I hit the ground running and she came hookin' after me

I got the boy steer rider’s blues

But it’s all gonna be ok

I got the boy steer rider’s blues

I’m gonna ride me a bull someday

I got the boy steer rider’s blues

I bucked off at Mountain View

But I placed out in Picture Butte

And paid my high school rodeo dues

And it’s a good thing too 'cause I was getting pretty damn near broke

I saved all winter just to buy myself a decent rope

I’m borrowin' my old man’s spurs

My mom lost track of hers

They’re out in the barn someplace

Since she give up on the barrel race

There’s some Croketts in the cellar and I think I’m gonna try 'em on

They fit a little big but I tried 'em with a leather thong
