I guess I should have known better
Than to enter this race
In your stampede of broken hearts
I won't win, show, or place
There are lots of other cowboys
Who want you for themselves
But somehow I can't bear the thought
Of you with someone else

One look from you and my heart takes off
I can only watch it go
But I know it's gonna get roped and tied
In this loser's rodeo

These guys have ridden this circuit
A lot longer than me
But I'd ride tall in the saddle
If you'd just set them free
But that's not gonna happen
No matter what I do
I guess I'm just not gonna win
This loser's rodeo

One look from you and my heart takes off
I can only watch it go
But I know it's gonna get roped and tied
In this loser's rodeo

I'll wipe your dust off my face
And get back onto my feet again
You haven't seen the last of me
Cause I'm a rodeo man

One look from you and my heart takes off
I can only watch it go
But I know it's gonna get roped and tied
In this loser's rodeo
In this loser's rodeo
