Well I'll gladly take ten seconds in the saddleFor a lifetime of watching from the stands[ guitar ]His Stetson was faded and battered and wornThe stubble of his beard showed flex of grayHis limp was severe cause a leg had been torn by a bronc in his rodeo daysHe hung round the chutes while we waited to mountWith a vague look of longing in his eyesHe spoke very few words but he made 'em countHe was broken forgotten but wiseHe said life's is just like ridin' broncs its a battleThen he rolled a cigarette with shaky handsSon I'll gladly take ten seconds in the saddleFor a lifetime of watching from the stands[ guitar ]I noticed the cigarette burns on his vestAnd the rembrandt of a dream left in his eyesThe boys said he could have well been the bestHad not fate cheated him of his prizeOh but I learned a lesson that I'd never knownFrom this guy who'd been busted so badIt's better to ride even if you get throwedThan to wind up just wishing you hadHe said life's is just like...Yes I'll gladly take ten seconds in the saddleFor a lifetime of watching from the stands
