Round & Round She Goes Lyrics - Chris Ledoux

On a cold Montana morning on the road to Idaho 

I watched her order hot and black to go 

In her boots and spurs and blue jeans 

And the lonely in her eyes 

Told me just how much she loved the rodeos 

I asked where she was headin' 

She said, the Boise show 

She took a third in Butte just yesterday 

She never has been married 

And she probably never will 

Silver buckle dreams 

Don't leave time for standing still 

Round and round and round she goes 

Where she stops nobody knows 

The miles are gettin' longer 

The nights they never end 

Oh, the rodeos and livestock shows 

Keep the lady on the go 

Lord, she loves to run those barrels 

It's the only life she knows 

For now on fifteen seasons 

The circuit's been her home 

At times she misses kids she never had 

But she wouldn't trade a minute 

Of the years that she's got in it 

She's had herself some happy 

She's learned to take the sad 

When I looked up from my coffee 

I saw Boise on her mind 

She had that look of leavin' in her eyes 

As she drove into the morning 

It slowly dawned on me 

How hard it is to tell a dream goodbye 

Round and round and round she goes 

Where she stops nobody knows 

The miles are gettin' longer 

The nights, they never end 

Oh, the rodeos and livestock shows 

Keep the lady on the go 

Lord, she loves to run those barrels 

It's the only life she knows 

Lord, she loves to run those barrels 

It's the only life she knows
