Verse 1
She watched him ride wild horses, knowing that she couldn't go
To follow around that young cowboy, the one they call Rodeo
Your not to be seen with the likes of him, her father didnt want him around
For Rose was his only daughter, the darling of the Downs
Verse 2
A dance had been planned for that evening, Rose cried as she left the
homestead
She could feel her heart slowly breaking from the words her father had said
She just sat by the window and listened to that travelling country band
When rodeo walked 'cross the dance floor, and held out his hand
Chorus
May I have this dance pretty lady, Forget what the others will say
People might think that we're crazy, But I'd have it no other way
As long as we're always together, Theres one thing that only we know
This love will last forever, Rose and Rodeo
Instrumental
Verse 3
Now its been many years since that evening, the old halls not used anymore
Except for an old man whos walking, 'cross that old dusty wooden dance floor
The children all laugh through the window, The danceband's not there to be
heard
But her eyes light up as he holds out his hand, she still remembers those
words.
Final Chorus:
May I have this dance pretty lady, Forget what the others will say
People might think that we're crazy, But I'd have it no other way
As long as we're always together, Theres one thing that only we know
This love will last forever, Rose and Rodeo
Their love will last forever, Rose and Rodeo
There ya go, have fun guys!
