Lyrics

Another Ropin' on Time (by Edward and Jan Davis)

She washed his lucky shirt and ironed it with steam
Folded his favorite pair of faded jeans
Took down the clothes line between the horse trailer and a tree
It's time to follow that jackpot ropin' dream

Crippled a good horse and times got lean
You lose one like that and you lose everything
Red's comin' on, but he's still green
It's time to follow that jackpot ropin' dream

Ch:
She rides off into another sunset
It's her turn to drive
And if the Ford don't fall apart
She's gonna get 'em to another ropin' on time

Won Tulsa, averaged 7.3
The new trailer's nice, what will the old one bring?
And the money wasn't bad and that's what they need
It's time to follow that jackpot ropin' dream

She thinks about this gypsy life they lead
All the miles in the rearview that she's seen
She wonders if this is where she wants to be
But she still follows that jackpot ropin' dream

(Lead break)

Ch:
She rides off into another sunset
Here come's that Arizona line
And if the Ford don't fall apart
She's gonna get 'em to another ropin' on time

Another truckstop in the middle of the night
Gas and coffee is all that she buys
She's feelin' lucky and says "Baby let's fly"
I'm gonna get us to another ropin' on time

Ch:
She's looking for another sunrise
To light up that Arizona sky
And if that Ford don't fall apart
She's gonna get 'em to another ropin'
She'll get 'em to another ropin'
She's gonna get 'em to another ropin' on time
