Well,
a note said you've had time to think about it
Looks like to me you're feeling kinda crowded
You're not looking for anything permanent here
Some rodeo's packed and it's in goodbye gear
So I shot down to the Longhorn Diner
Her sister works there and she'd know where to find her
She said you did not hear this from me
All I'll say is Mama's got that place out
in Monterey
Oh,
how fast can I go?
I gotta catch that little red rodeo She drove up with my heart
I gotta let her know Need the girl in that little red rodeo
Texas plates, candy apple red rodeo
Two towns back I showed her a photograph And
the gas station man just started to laugh
She said I might see you in that old bucket of rust
And said good luck boy,
just follow that cloud of dust
Oh, how fast can I go?
I gotta catch that little red rodeo She
drove up with my heart I gotta let her know
Need the girl in that little red rodeo Texas plates,
candy apple red rodeo
Maybe I was straddling the fence just like she said
But it took her leaving
just to get it through my head
She's the one and only,
it's over,
that's it I'm committed,
I'm in love and I'm desperate
She's a good way,
it's gone,
but I'm closing the gap If I have to,
I'll chase her clear across the map
Oh, how fast can I go?
I gotta catch that little red rodeo She
drove up with my heart I gotta let her know
Need the girl in that little red rodeo Texas plates,
candy apple red rodeo
Yeah,
how fast can I go?
I gotta catch that little red rodeo
She drove up with my heart I gotta let her know
Need the girl in that little red rodeo Texas plates,
candy apple red rodeo
Yeah,
now how fast can I go?
I gotta catch that little red rodeo
She drove up with my heart I gotta let her know
Need the girl in that little red
rodeo Texas plates, candy apple red rodeo
