歌词
Folks used to think that I could ride any bronc or bull alive
Maybe in my younger days, I could
But now I'm slowin' down a bit, friends tell me that I should quit
And if I didn't love it, so I would
I recall when folks thought I was great and all the riders used to hate
To see my name up on the entry door
'Cause I could ride and I could rope, the others seem they have no hope
Lookin' at a buckle that I wore
It said all-around cowboy of 1964
Long days and lucky breaks helped me along
Workin' hard and ridin' fast and sleepin' in the cold
Made me all-around cowboy of 1964
Folks don't seem to realize the thrill I get from every ride
That bronc feels like dear dynamite to me
Scratched and bruised my body aches from day to day abuse it takes
Lord only knows the way it sets me free
Now my days have shorten up, I'm out of breakes and out of luck
And things will never be the same old way
As I look back and shed a tear, sometimes I can almost hear
The echo of the judges they would say
You're the all-around cowboy of 1964
Long days and lucky breaks helped me along
Workin' hard and ridin' fast and sleepin' in the cold
Made me all-around cowboy of 1964
Yes, I'm the all-around cowboy of 1964
