Emmylou Harris - Sweetheart Of The Rodeo Lyrics
I hear the sound of sorrow in the wind
Blowing down from every mile I've ever been
Calling me out on some road that just won't end
Where the sweetheart rides the rodeo again
But there is no compensation for me now
Out along the highway where the west was won
No matter how fast I ride or far I run
Waiting for the sweetheart of the rodeo
They're comin' down from Tonopah to Tupelo
She'll come to town to ride the radio
Like she's slidin' down the walls of Jericho
There goes the sweetheart of the rodeo
I stood there where all the world could see me shine
Oh I was on my way to you to make you mine
But I took the longest road that I could find

Emmylou Harris Sweetheart Of The Rodeo Comments
I Love this song..
Her greatest release: saw her perform the whole disc at the Universal Ampitheater when it was released. Last time I saw her she opened for Elton John at Dodger Stadium in 1975 !
1985, perhaps?
This is even more than Emmylou singing.
Beautiful words, beautiful melody written by a beautiful woman about a beautiful man. Like Emmylou, I lost a wonderful man long before his time. He adored Emmylou & Gram Parsons & it's been 30 years & I still get misty eyed when I hear this song.
Two Thumbs for this Song & Emmylou Harris

I admit, it is one of my favorites of hers also and was shocked to see it wasn't here already to be honest. Glad you found it.
God this is my favorite album from her, and of all time!
