[Verse 1] Well, you wore the blue out of your jeans Your hat is never clean The pain you say is just a part of life Youll never say it hurts Youre a subject of the curse Gettin by eight seconds at a time And now you aint got much to show For this damned old rodeo There aint no big gold buckle on your belt Guess you like the way it feels With the road beneath your wheels Still bettin on the hand that you been dealt [Chorus] Dust, sweat, and callused hands Grit in the teeth Squinted eyes thats seen bettr days If you had it all to do again You wouldnt change a thing Freedom in the life Of rodo dreams [Verse 2] Well, it aint all glamour like it seems To live on pork and beans And spend most nights sleepin in the truck Underneath that prairie moon Dreams of bein back home soon Until those damned ol flies wake you up [Chorus] Dust, sweat, and callused hands Grit in the teeth Squinted eyes thats seen better days If you had it all to do again You wouldnt change a thing Freedom in the life Of rodeo dreams [Bridge] Well, aint it great to be alive An old man at thirtyfive Just aint ready to ride off into the sun And if you die under your shield Out on that battlefield I guess you go down doin what you love [Chorus] With dust, sweat, and callused hands Grit in the teeth Squinted eyes thats seen better days And if you had it all to do again You wouldnt change a thing Freedom in the life of rodeo dreams Freedom in the life of rodeo dreams Yeah, freedom in the life Of rodeo dreams
