He had most recently appeared on a summer television series, 'Homemade Jam', before he graduated to his own show, 'Ruzicka', which produced in Edmonton. The show lasted from January to April 1972." from here. |

03 Dec 13 - 10:35 PM (#3581254) Subject: Lyr Add: RODEO RED (Bob Ruzicka) From: GUEST "Rodeo Red" written by Bob Ruzicka Ride 'em cowboy, ride your broom across the bar room floor Crazy drunk and hanging like a scarecrow in the door Telling tales of all the broncs you've ridden in your time Bummin' smokes and asking folks if they can spare a dime. chorus: Rodeo Red It's the kind of life you led That's made you old before your time Weathered skin and broken bones From all the times that you've been thrown Comin' down a little harder all the time. Well, the stories told that years ago Old Red rode with the best He was always in the money all across the great midwest But he lost his nerve in Denver on the meanest mare that ever lived If it's true a man can't lose them all, you could have fooled Old Red. repeat chorus. Well, the big time dreams got lost between the women and the wine Now he's bareback bar stool riding champ hanging on to closing time Laying face down in the gutter, he thinks he's on the lone prairie Saying, "Send my spurs to Mother. Let my horses all run free." repeat chorus. |
