Next 8 Second Ride | SONG

Next 8 Second Ride
Written by: Christopher Williams

Yeah, I put on my scuffed up cowboy boots
And I wait for that bull to bust out of the chute
I hold on tight, and try not to lose my hat
If I take a fall, I knock the dirt off my chaps

I'm just a cowboy with my hand in the wind
Riding bareback and wearing a crazy grin
You know, this is the way to live my life
Just out looking for my next 8 second ride

I gotta load up fast, so I can still make Cheyenne
Then turn right around to make Amarillo by mornin'
I'm gonna ride 'til that buzzer's sound is gone
The last one's in Tulsa, then I'm headed home

I'm just a cowboy with my hand in the wind
Riding bareback and wearing a crazy grin
You know, this is the way to live my life
Just out looking for my next 8 second ride

I dunno why I do it; it's just an 8 second thrill
If the wait don't kill me, that bull probably will

I'm just a cowboy with my spirit in the wind
Still riding bareback with the same crazy grin
I know I loved the way that I lived my life
Just out looking for my next 8 second ride

I'll be right here, in this rodeo in the sky
Just out looking for my next 8 second ride
Yeah, just looking for that 8 second ride
God bless those looking for their 8 second ride
