[Verse]
Boots on the ground kickin' up dirt
Wranglers tight yeah the dust sure hurts
Friday night lights and the flags held high
Cowboys chase glory under an open sky
[Chorus]
Ride that thunder hold on tight
Eight seconds feel like a fight
Mud on the boots blood on the hands
Cheers erupt from the rodeo stands
[Verse 2]
Bull snorts steam like a freight train wild
Cowgirls wink with a fearless smile
Rodeo clown spins his daring dance
Saving lives with a risky stance
[Prechorus]
Injuries heal but the pride it stays
Scars are stories of the rodeo days
[Chorus]
Ride that thunder hold on tight
Eight seconds feel like a fight
Mud on the boots blood on the hands
Cheers erupt from the rodeo stands
[Bridge]
Flags wave high red white and blue
Dirt-streaked dreams they always come through
For every fall there's a chance to rise
The rodeo's heart never says goodbye
