ver 1
she rode that stick pony everywhere
a lil girl's adventure begins
dreams of riding into the sunset
and never coming back again
then one day that pony gave way
she fell and scraped her knee
as she lay crying she realized
maybe her dream wasn't meant to be
and her mama said
chor
He can be rode
but he can never be tamed
you can't lose what you love
without feeling no pain
ya gotta pick yourself up
relax a lil on the reins
sometimes he can be rode
but he can never be tamed
ver 2
she met him at the rodeo
it was love from the opening gate
she gave that cowboy her heart
they'd already set a date
but that rodeo prize in Vegas
was loudly calling his name
and the life of her rodeo man
was destined for glory and fame
and she thought
chor
He can be rode
but he can never be tamed
you can't lose what you love
without feeling no pain
ya gotta pick yourself up
relax a lil on the reins
sometimes he can be rode
but he can never be tamed
bridge
when they pulled that chute in Vegas
that bull was just too strong
and those dreams of a happy ending
never ever made it back home
and she knew
chor
that he can be rode
but he can never be tamed
and you can't lose what you love
without feeling no pain
ya gotta pick yourself up
relax a lil on the reins
sometimes he can be rode
but he can never be tamed
outro
and those nightmares
still haunt her to this day
sometimes they can be wrote
but they can never be tamed
