Just a rodeo drifter, he comes and he goes
Like a wild wind that blows in the night
The highways and backroads are all that he knows
He'll be gone with the mornings grey light

Like a blue norther howling like the tumbleweeds blow
There's no way to settle him down
His spirit's as wild as the horses he rides
His freedom he wears like a crown

And he rides the wild horses
The same blood flows through their veins
Yes, he rides the wild horses
Like the horses, he'll never be tamed

He'll never be broke, he won't be tied down
He'll never wear no man's brand
He won't fit in with the nine to five crowd
'Cause moving's all he understands

And he rides the wild horses
The same blood flows through their veins
Yes, he rides the wild horses
Like the horses, he'll never be tamed

And he rides the wild horses
The same blood flows through their veins
Yes, he rides the wild horses
Like the horses, he'll never be tamed
