Eight Second High

He's a bull
Ridin' fool
That's how he gets his kicks
He's been jonesen
For so long
And needs to get his fix

Pickup truck
Is loaded up
He's headin' on down the road.
Got no girlfriend
Got no wife
He don't need that kind of load.

He gets high
Eight seconds at a time.
Ridin' bulls is the highlight of his life.
If the good Lord's willing
And the creek don't rise.
He'll ride them bulls
Till the day he dies.
He's a rodeo junkie
Hooked on eight second highs.

Another town
Another crown
Another buckle for his belt.
He may be bruised
And battered
But oh the joy he felt.

Hotel bar
A cheap cigar
To celebrate his win
Pack it up and
Head out tomorrow
Just to do it all again

He gets high
Eight seconds at a time.
Ridin' bulls is the highlight of his life.
If the good Lords willing
And the creek don't rise
He'll ride them bulls
Till the day he dies
He's a rodeo junkie
Hooked on eight second highs

Yes If the good Lords willing
And the creek don't rise
He'll win that buckle
And take that prize.
He's a rodeo junkie
Hooked on eight second highs
