Bulls Buck Harder in Klamath Falls
by Donald Long
Lyrics
Verse 1
Dust on my boots
Sun sinking down low
They painted that plywood sign
"Welcome to the show"
Grandstand’s filling
Kids on their dad’s shoulders
You can feel that nervous crackle
Rolling off the old chutes
Chorus
Bulls buck harder at a Klamath Falls rodeo
Hang on tight or you’re kissing that dirt below
Grab a cold one for the show, let that cheap beer overflow
Bulls buck harder at a Klamath Falls rodeo
(yeah they do, hey)
Verse 2
Smell of mud and manure
Hangs heavy in the heat
Roughstock riders praying
Over busted-up seats
Queen’s waving circles
Flag snapping in the wind
Eight seconds feels like forever
Till that buzzer cuts in
Chorus
Bulls buck harder at a Klamath Falls rodeo
Hang on tight or you’re kissing that dirt below
Grab a cold one for the show, let that cheap beer overflow
Bulls buck harder at a Klamath Falls rodeo
(that’s how it goes)
Bridge
Some folks chase bright lights
Big arenas, big names
I’ll take these splintered bleachers
Dust, sweat, and hometown names
Where every wild-eyed cowboy
Falls, or stands tall
Right here under these cheap bulbs
Out in Klamath Falls
Chorus
Bulls buck harder at a Klamath Falls rodeo
Hang on tight or you’re kissing that dirt below
Grab a cold one for the show, let that cheap beer overflow
Bulls buck harder at a Klamath Falls rodeo
Bulls buck harder at a Klamath Falls rodeo
