[Verse 1]
You're wild as the [?] you barrel on
Daddy wrote that check, and you were gone
Seems like it's always been that way
Now you're looking for a man who can do the same
That's why you ain't looking back at me
I'm just a poor picker, you're a rodeo queen
More about buckles than the dirty old strings
You're riding for the money I got songs to sing

[Chorus]
But hey girl don't you know
The singer gets a check every rodeo
Ain't gotta make the short go
At the beer garden baby yeah I'm the show
I'll be playing all night
'Til the drinks run out or drunks start to fight
I'll be dreaming of the grand stand lights
Down the road but we still got tonight
Still got tonight

[Verse 2]
Knew you before you were holding them reins
Back when you just liked the way I sang
And it's been a while since we've been together
But there ain't nobody gonna do it better
So stick around, I'll play your song
And after the show we can go get stoned
Back behind the chutes we can cut it loose
And do it like we used to do
[Chorus]
But hey girl don't you know
The singer gets a check every rodeo
Ain't gotta make the short go
At the beer garden baby yeah I'm the show
I'll be playing all night
'Til the drinks run out or drunks start to fight
I'll be dreaming of the grand stand lights
Down the road but we still got tonight
Still got tonight

[Bridge]
Well it looks like you were just out of the money
So who's gonna buy your Coors tonight honey?

[Chorus]
Well don't you know
The singer gets a check every rodeo
Ain't gotta make the short go
At the beer garden baby yeah I'm the show
I'll be playing all night
'Til the drinks run out or drunks start to fight
I'll be dreaming of the grand stand lights
Down the road but we still got tonight
Still got tonight
