You were wilder than a Mustang Freer than a Tulsa wind It took a little time, but to my surprise I somehow roped you in Fallin' stars over Texas Two hearts in a tumbleweed town One second, we were flyin' high The next we hit the ground We had a hell of a ride And for a while, we held on tight When push came to shovin', life got to buckin' We came up a little shy And when it comes to comin' close Every cowboy knows That a seven-second ride never won no rodeo I tried to talk you into leavin' Tried to sell you on seein' the world But you were hellbent on bein' more Than just some cowboy's girl I had your daddy's blessin' And a ring in my Wrangler jeans But now forever's just a good intention 'Cause I never hit that knee We had a hell of a ride And for a while, we held on tight When push came to shovin', life got to buckin' We came up a little shy And when it comes to comin' close Every cowboy knows That a seven-second ride never won no rodeo Yeah, and it's damn tough to get back up from a fall like that You just wear the scars 'til you find the heart to hang your hat We had a hell of a ride And for a while, we held on tight When push came to shovin', life got to buckin' We came up a little shy And when it comes to comin' close Well, every cowboy knows That a seven-second ride never won no rodeo Yeah, a seven-second ride never won no rodeo
