Before long there was a new babe
They named her Junior after some debate
Then soon after, Jenny too
Some time later Jack's card that was overdue.

And now I cant find anything to rhyme with "babe"
Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection

The rodeo life was tough
And bull ridin was rough

And bull ridin was rough
The Army wouldnt take him.

He was busted from limb to limb

And bull ridin was rough
The Army wouldnt take him
He was busted from limb to limb
Still,  Ennis could never get enough.

Along the mountain trails
They cooked outdoors on a campfire too.
