Rodeo and Juliet Lyrics


Rodeo and Juliet
If there’s ever been a greater love
Thoust hasn’t found it yet
What’s to be or not to be
Is anybody’s bet
Rodeo and Juliet

Into our scene at Faraona
Riding the Queen from Arizona
The fairest in a pair of stud blue jeans
Oh Rodeo, oh where for art thou
She knows how to play the part now
The leading role in every cowboy’s dream

Rodeo and Juliet
If there’s ever been a greater love
Thoust hasn’t found it yet
What’s to be or not to be
Is anybody’s bet
Rodeo and Juliet

Yeah Shakespeare cowboys dare to find her
Pen a poem paint and rhyme her
But a rose by any name is still a rose
She’ll barrel race and chase tomorrow
Parting is such sweet, sweet sorrow
To thine own self be true is all she knows

Rodeo and Juliet
If the world’s seen a greater love
Thoust hasn’t found it yet
What’s to be or not to be
Is anybody’s bet
Rodeo and Juliet

Rodeo and Juliet
If the world’s seen a greater love
Thoust hasn’t found it yet
What’s to be or not to be
Is anybody’s bet
Rodeo and Juliet
Rodeo and Juliet

Rodeo and Juliet Song Chart
  • This song was co-penned by Garth Brooks with Bryan Kennedy. The Louisiana native previously collaborated with the country star on his hit singles "Good Ride Cowboy," "The Beaches of Cheyenne," and "American Honky Tonk Bar Association."
  • According to Brooks, the song title says it all. "It's a cowboy's look at Shakespeare and his work," he explained. "It's a love story between a young lady and a sport she loves: rodeo."
  • The song has a definite swing influence. "I haven't heard swing in a million years," said Brooks, "and it feels so fresh on this record."
  • Rodeo contests began in the early days of the cattle industry when men gathered in cow towns at roundup time. Following the American Civil War, rodeo competitions emerged, with the first held in Cheyenne, Wyoming in 1872.

    In 1882 a rodeo sponsored by Buffalo Bill Cody at North Platte, Nebraska., attracted 1,000 contestants. Its success prompted Cody to open his traveling Wild West show.

    The first professional rodeo, which charged admission and awarded trophies was held on July 4, 1881 in Prescott, Arizona.
