lyrics

Brahma Bull Rider

Faded blue Wranglers, an old Stetson hat.
The grip on his rope – suicide.
And he rides for the buckle, the thrill and his pride.
He’s a cowboy, he’s a Brahma bull rider.

He’s as unique a breed as the bulls he rides and every bit as tough.
No matter which bull he draws he’ll tell you bring him on he can’t get enough.
Each time that Brahma twists and turns his riding arm grips tighter ‘til it burns.
Up on his bull rope, he’s got an iron fist and he won’t let up.

From the first time he laid eyes on the bulls at the rodeo.
A Brahma bull rider, well that’d be the future he’d come to know.
There’s fire in his eyes, pure passion for the ride.
He has a mindset, that there ain’t no bull that can’t be rode.


Brahma bull rider knows, that bull will turn and go, everywhere the wind blows.
To make the ride, he’ll put the fear aside, and then he’ll turn it loose.
Can’t take the thrill higher when, he finds himself, high atop
A short-round black tornado. There’s your Brahma bull rider.

Every now and then a bull rider finds he’s run short of luck.
Dragging like a rag doll, he can’t help himself when he gets hung up.
And who frees him from his rope? The Brahma bull fighters we all know.
They’re working overtime, when duty calls for them to show their stuff.

Few can say, what it’s like in that world he’s living in.
Watch that bull rider, hanging on for eight and you’ll see him grin.
One more white knuckle ride, for a taste of gold belt buckle pride.
Don’t try to change his ways, you’ll sooner rope and tie down the wind.


Brahma bull rider knows, that bull will turn and go, everywhere the wind blows.
To make the ride, he’ll put the fear aside, and then he’ll turn it loose.
Can’t take the thrill higher when, he finds himself, high atop
A short-round black tornado. There’s your Brahma bull rider.

Can’t take the thrill higher when, he finds himself, high atop
A short-round black tornado. There’s your Brahma bull rider.
Tip your hat to……...to that Brahma bull rider.
