Rita Ballou lyrics

Artist  : Guy Clark 
Song : Rita Ballou



 Send "Rita Ballou" Ringtone to your Cell 

 She could dance that slow Uvalde 

Shuffle to some cowboy hustle 

How she made them trophy buckles shine, shine,
shine 

Wild-eyed and Mexican silvered, 

Trickin' dumb ol' cousin Willard 

into thinkin that he's got her this time 



Chorus 

Hill country honky-tonkin Rita Ballou 

Every beer joint in town has played a fool for
you 

Backslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ballou 

Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not ride a bull for
you 



She's a rawhide rope and velvet mixture 

Walkin' talkin Texas texture 

High-timin' barroom fixture kind of a girl 

She's the queen of the cowboys 

Look at old Willard grinnin' now boys 

You'd of thought there's less fools in this world




Chorus 



So good luck Willard and here's to you 

And here's to Rita and I hope she'll do ya right
all night 

Lord I wish I was the fool in your shoes 



Chorus
