As recorded by Bobby Bare (From the 1976 Album THE WINNER AND OTHER LOSERS) [Intro] E G A [Verse 1]
D            A                D
We've come a long way on this East Texas highway

        G               A            D
And I'm feeling awfully old at forty three.

G                 A                 D
Sure am glad that Rosie's here with me.

G                    A
I guess I showed 'em what I could do,

       D                  Bm
When I rode everything in Houston.

E7      A              D  A
Boy was Rosie proud of me.
[Verse 2]
D          A               D
I'm just a broken down old rodeo rider,

G         A                  D
Trying to make just one more show.

G               A               D
Shoulda hung it up a long time ago.

G                          A
Cause I've been kicked and I've been down

    D            Bm
And busted to my knees.

E7             A              D
Just a keeping Rosie proud of me.
[Chorus]
        G                 A
You see Rosie's young and pretty,

    D
She likes to have her fun.

    G                      A
But she don't have it with me,

                       D
She gonna have it with someone.

G                     A
I gotta finish in the money,

          D  A     Bm
So we can go on to Cheyenne,

E7           A          D
And I can go on being Rosie's man.
[Piano Solo] E7 A [Chorus]
        G                 A
You see Rosie's young and pretty,

    D
She likes to have her fun.

    G                      A
But she don't have it with me,

                       D
She gonna have it with someone.

G                     A
I gotta finish in the money,

          D  A     Bm
So we can go on to Cheyenne,

E7           A          D
And I can go on being Rosie's man.
[Outro]
E        A          D          E  A7  D
I can go on being Rosie's man.
