What the hey is Down on Rodeo about?

[AnthonyMI]

Ok now...i like LB, always have. Mainly I only listen to his FM stuff. But GOS (do we ledgies have enough suffixes?) got me to better appreciate his, um, unusual music. I really like the arrangement or Down on Rodeo right down to the guitar solo. But what the FRICK is he saying? Why must he MUMMBLE his way through the whole song? He sounds WORSE than Brian Wilson with a mouth full of marbles doing a Bob Dylan impersonation (on key though). I can only pick up one or two words per stanza and I only know he is say ing “down on rodeo” because that happens to be what the MP3 is called. If not for that fact I probably think he was singing about (children close your ears) “going down on a hoe” (the Britney Spears variety, not the garden tool). Can someone please tell me WHY he has to sing that why? He can do so much better and more of his music would actually be playable on the radio I feel. He did a great job on Peacemaker “the GOS version” (if you can understand the words under the layers of LB overdub) and Steal your heart away and Bleed to Love Her.
