rodeo
Deniece Pearson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sensations
Left to right
Up and down in this
In this rollercoaster with ya
Speeding
To higher heights
Wanna try one more taste of your elixir
It all started with a
Conversation
Then you hit me with your
Presentation
Not sure about your
Occupatuion
Performance was on it, on it
Yeah, you ade me want it, want it

[Chorus:]
Was like a rodeo
Got me so excited, I can't fight it
What you doing to me, me
Like a rodeo
Holding the rhythm all night
I think you might be
Too much for me, me

Uh Uh Uh uh uh uh rodeo
Uh Uh Uh uh uh uh rodeo

Keep me, up all night
Take your time
Want to savor every minute
Careful, steady now
Hold it down
You're falling faster deeper in it

So impressive was that
Presentation
All the others look like
Imitations
Wasn't sure aout your
Occupation
Performance was on it, on it
You made me want it, want it

[Chorus:]

Listen cowboy, go giddy up
Giddy up
Show me that lasso
Coming out, coming out
Ready for the ride now
On one at a time
Show me how to work it out
Coming up boogie dance





[Chorus:]

Overall Meaning

The song "Rodeo" by Deniece Pearson is about the exciting and unpredictable nature of falling in love. The first verse describes the rollercoaster of emotions and sensations that come with being in a new relationship. The lyrics suggest that the singer is willing to take risks and try new things with her partner. The second verse features the singer reflecting on how she was initially unsure about her partner, but was won over by his impressive presentation and stellar performance. The chorus compares falling in love to riding a rodeo, suggesting that it's a thrilling and exhilarating experience that takes a lot of skill and endurance to navigate. The bridge of the song features playful lyrics that compare the singer's partner to a cowboy and encourages him to show her all of his skills.


One interesting interpretation of this song is that it could be seen as a commentary on the entertainment industry. The lyrics describing a "presentation" and the idea of being impressed by someone's "performance" could be interpreted as a reference to the music industry or other forms of performance. The comparison to a rodeo could also be seen as a metaphor for the chaos and unpredictability of this industry.
