A
Dixie was a lady and a Rodeo Queen
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
Billy was her lover ah you know what I mean
G       D      A
Billy rode the bulls in the big Rodeo
E        D      A
Dixie loved her man and she told him so
E        D      A
Dixie loved her man and she told him so



Brought a bad bull to the big Rodeo

Said He`d killed a man out in New Mexico
G   D     A
Dixie said Billy please don`t go
   E    D       A
Don`t ride the killer in the Rodeo
      E        D     A
You`re the only man that I love and I need you so
A
Then Billy he looked at Dixie
A
Looked her right in the eyes



      D           A
Well I`m a wild bull rider and I love my Rodeo
  D
I`d ride that bull to Hell and back
    A
for the money and the show
   D
If my pappy was a pistol I`m a son of a gun
 A            F#
I ride wild bulls just to have some fun
    D          B         E
And the higher they get is a little too low for me
      D                    A
I said the higher they get is a little too low for me



Billy rode that killer out of New Mexico

He rode him cross the Rockies through the rain and the snow
G        D       A
Rode across the desert to the shining sea
E        D      A
Rode across the water out to Hawaii
E        D      A
Rode across the water out to Hawaii
         D
Aloha Ha Ha Aloha Hey
A         D
Aloha Ha Ha Aloha Hey



A
Billy rode that bull around the world and then

He rode him out to Jupiter and back again
G     D     A
Picked up Dixie and away they did fly
E        D      A
Like a shooting star sailing through the sky
E        D      A
Like a shooting star sailing through the sky



And I could hear Billy say he said

I`d rather be a lover than a fighter of wars

Be from Oklahoma than the nebulous stars
G       D      A
Spent a lot of time in some honky tonk bars
E          D   A
From memphis to the China Sea
E          D   A
From memphis to the China Sea


     D           A
And I`m a wild bull rider and I love my Rodeo
  D
I`d ride that bull to Hell and back
    A
for the money and the show
   D
If my pappy was a pistol I`m a son of a gun
 A            F#
I ride wild bulls just to have some fun
    D          B         E
And the higher they get is a little too low for me
      D                    A
I said the higher they get is a little too low for me
         D
Aloha Ha Ha Aloha Hey
A         D
Aloha Ha Ha Aloha Hey
         D
Aloha Ha Ha Aloha Hey
A         D
Aloha Ha Ha Aloha Hey (fade)
