Dixie was a lady and a Rodeo Queen Billy was her lover ah you know what I mean Billy rode the bulls in the big rodeo Dixie loved her man and she told him so Dixie loved her man and she told him so
Brought a bad bull to the big rodeo said he killed a man out in New Mexico Dixie said Billy please don't go don't ride that killer in the rodeo You're the only man I love and I need you so
Then Billy he looked at Dixie looked her right in the eys Said I'm a Wild Bull Rider and I love my rodeo I'd ride that bull to hell and back for the money and the show My pappy was a pistol I'm a son of a gun I ride wild bulls just to have some fun And the higher they get a little too low for me I said the higher they get 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 Rode across the desert to the shining sea rode across the water out to Hawaii Rode across the water out to Hawaii Aloha ha Aloha hey Aloha ha Aloha hey
Billy rode that bull around the world and then He rode him out to Jupiter and back again Picked up Dixie away they did fly like a shootin' star sailing through the sky Like a shootin' 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 Spent a lot of time in some honky tonk bars From Memphis to the China Sea yeah from Memphis to the China Sea
