She could dance that slow uvalde
Shuffle to some cowboy hustle
How she made them trophy buckles shine, shine, shine
Wild-eyed and mexican silvered
Trickin' dumb old cousin willard
Into thinkin' that he got her this time

Hill country honky-tonkin' rita ballou
Every beer joint in town has played a fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' rita ballou
Ain't a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you

She's a rawhide rope and velvet mixture
Walkin' talkin' texas texture
High-timin' barroom fixture kind of a girl
She's the queen of the cowboys
Look at old willard grinnin' now boys
You'd of thought there's less fools in this world

Hill country honky-tonkin' rita ballou
Every beer joint in town has played a fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' rita ballou
Ain't a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you

So good luck willard and here's to you
And here's to rita and i hope she'll do ya right all night
Lord i wish i was the fool in your shoes

Hill country honky-tonkin' rita ballou
Every beer joint in town has played a fool for you
Backslidin' barrel ridin' rita ballou
Ain't a cowboy in texas would not ride a bull for you
