AIN'T MY FIRST RODEO

LYRICS

Ain't My First Rodeo

IntroBoy…
you really thought that was gonna work?

Ain’t my first rodeo.

Verse 1You walked in like a warning,
boots loud across the floor.
Same smile, same little story
I’ve heard a hundred times before.
You said, “Baby, you’re different,”
like you invented that line.
I almost let you finish—
then I ordered one more wine.

Pre-ChorusI know the wink,
I know the show.
I know exactly where this goes.

ChorusAin’t my first rodeo,
I’ve seen that smile, I know that show.
You can spin me ’round, but I won’t lose control,
baby, ain’t my first rodeo.
You can talk real sweet, move real slow,
tell me everything you think I wanna know.
But I’ve been thrown, got back up, and stole the show—
Ain’t my first rodeo.

Post-ChorusAin’t my first—
(RODEO!)
Ain’t my first—
(RODEO!)
No, baby, no.

Verse 2You got that midnight confidence,
that “trust me” in your eyes.
But honey, I’ve survived enough
to recognize a pretty lie.
I don’t need your promises,
don’t need a rescue ride.
If I get into trouble,
I know how to get outside.

Pre-ChorusI know the game,
I know the score.
You’re not the first cowboy at my door.

ChorusAin’t my first rodeo,
I’ve seen that smile, I know that show.
You can spin me ’round, but I won’t lose control,
baby, ain’t my first rodeo.
You can talk real sweet, move real slow,
tell me everything you think I wanna know.
But I’ve been thrown, got back up, and stole the show—
Ain’t my first rodeo.

BridgeI’ve kissed the wrong man,
missed the right sign,
stayed too long
one too many times.
I’ve hit the dirt,
I’ve learned the ropes.
So if you think you’re gonna break me—
(NOPE!)

BuildWhat’d she say?
(AIN’T MY FIRST RODEO!)
One more time!
(AIN’T MY FIRST RODEO!)
Hit it!

Final ChorusAin’t my first rodeo,
I’ve seen that smile, I know that show.
You can spin me ’round, but I won’t lose control,
baby, ain’t my first rodeo.
You can talk real sweet, move real slow,
tell me everything you think I wanna know.
I’ve been thrown, got back up, and now I run the show—
Ain’t my first rodeo.

Final Post-ChorusAin’t my first—
RODEO!
Ain’t my first—
RODEO!
Been there, done that,
and I already know—
Ain’t my first rodeo.
