Verse 1 He walks in wearin’ confidence on his sleeve Orders a drink, throws a side-eye at me Slides in smooth, he don’t miss a beat Let’s see how long ’til he retreats Chorus This ain’t my first rodeo I know where this goes You can take your time… let those sweet words flow But I’m sure… I’ve heard it all before This ain’t my first rodeo It ain’t hard to see You ain’t the first cowboy… to take a seat You can play it out… but not with me Right from the git-go… I already know (This ain’t my first rodeo) [BREAK — 1–2 bars instrumental] Verse 2 So I let him talk, let him think he’s smooth Like I don’t already know his next move Noddin’ along like I’m buyin’ in Just to see how far he thinks he’ll get Chorus (Repeat) Bridge I let one like you take me for a ride All he showed me was his tail lights I don’t make the same mistake twice This ain’t my first rodeo
