Bronc Buster Boogie
The Bronc Buster’s Boogie is danced every day
From Calgary & Cheyenne to way down Arizona Way
You size up your bucking partner & set your rigging right
Then settle in for a wild dance, make sure you hold on tight
That boogie begins with a 3/4 beat, as you & that bronc start to spin
Him with a mind to send you soaring & you with a mind to win
Three bone jarring leaps & a hoof tap tango, as that bronc heads for the sky
That bronc has a lot of fire & heart & that Cowboy, a lot of try
Your eyes are focused between his ears, every muscle tensed & strained
If you have to ask why its done, there ain’t no need to explain
You pitch & sway to a rhythm & a song only heard by the bronc & you
When that buzzer sounds, with a leap of faith, you soar in to the deep wide blue
So plays out the Bronc Buster Boogie in arenas big & small
The roar of the crowd after a winning ride is the sweetest music of all
