(Verse 1) The sun dipped low behind the Rockies' crest Leaving nothing but the heat inside my chest The smell of cedar, hay, and expensive perfume Winding through the crowd, clearing out the room Then I saw her leaning on a wooden rail Making every other girl look ghost-white pale. (Chorus) She was smooth like top-shelf rye She was fine as a July sky Yeah, the dust was kicking, the lights were lead But I was lost in every word she said Down in the dirt, where the wild things breed I got lucky at the Calgary Stampede And for one night, honey... she was all mine. (Verse 2) Silver buckles glinting in the midway glow We found a shadow where the tourists don't go No more cheering fans or the announcer's call Just the sound of the wind against the stable wall She moved like water, steady and slow With a look in her eyes that said "don't let go." (Bridge) White hat tilted, boots tossed on the floor I’ve never been to heaven through a denim door The fireworks started, blooming overhead But we had a different kind of fire instead. (Chorus) She was smooth like top-shelf rye She was fine as a July sky Yeah, the dust was kicking, the lights were lead But I was lost in every word she said Down in the dirt, where the wild things breed I got lucky at the Calgary Stampede And for one night, honey... she was all mine. (Outro) All mine... Under the Saddledome moon. Yeah, she was fine.
