Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well a note said, you've had time to think about it
Looks like to me you're feelin' kinda crowded
You're not lookin' for anything permanent here
So my Rodeo is packed and it's in goodbye gear
[Verse 2]
So I shot down to the Longhorn Diner
Her sister works there and she'd know where to find her
She said, you didn't hear this from me
All I'll say is mama's got that place out in Monterrey
[Verse 3]
Oh how fast can I go, I gotta catch that little red rodeo
She drove off with my heart, I gotta let her know
Need the girl in that little red rodeo
Texas plates, candy-apple red rodeo
[Verse 4]
Two towns back I showed your photograph
And the gas station man just started to laugh
She said I might see you in this old bucket of rust
And said good luck boy, just follow that cloud of dust
[Verse 5]
Oh how fast can I go, I gotta catch that little red rodeo
She drove off with my heart, I gotta let her know
Need the girl in that little red rodeo
Texas plates, candy-apple red rodeo, hey
[Verse 6]
Well, maybe I was straddlin' the fence just like she said
It took her leavin' to get it through my head
[Verse 7]
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 ways gone, but I'm closin' the gap
If I have to, I'll chase her clear across the map
[Verse 8]
Oh, how fast can I go, I gotta catch that little red rodeo
She drove off with my heart, I gotta let her know
Need the girl in that little red rodeo
Texas plates, candy-apple red rodeo
[Verse 9]
Hey, how fast can I go, I gotta catch that little red rodeo
She drove off with my heart, I gotta let her know
Need the girl in that little red rodeo
Texas plates, candy-apple red rodeo
[Verse 10]
Yeah, now how fast can I go? Oh
