Rollin' down a long highway, out to New Mexico
Driftin' down to Santa Fe, to ride a bull in a Rodeo
He's hooked on a feelin', addicted to a natural high
Don't know why it's appealin', all he knows is he's got to ride
He's addicted to danger
Ruled by passion and pride
To pain and fear he's no stranger
But his lust needs to satisfied
Hooked on an 8 second ride
Gettin' up down in back of the chutes, makes that rousin' burn
He's got his spurs on the heels of his boots, he's at the point of no return
Climbin' over that chute gate he settles down inside
The tension's risin' but he can't wait until they turn that bull outside
He's addicted to danger
Ruled by passion and pride
To pain and fear he's no stranger
But his lust needs to satisfied
Hooked on an 8 second ride
