The Rodeo Song

   Thank you sir for the information. Back in my misspent youth I was in a darts league, and we occasionally played down at a now defunct bar here south of Seattle. We happened to drive by it (the building) the other night after having had Thai food with my daughter (it was her birthday). I immediately started singing this song, it apparently having embedded itself in the last remaining brain cell I have from that era. That song was on the jukebox constantly in that bar. It didn't take long to find it on these interwebs.

	No not that Rodeo, not the Copeland one. It's rare that I get to share something I'm perty sure you all here haven't heard before, 'ceptin' if ya been drinking in a redneck bar back 'round 1983. There is some pretty good pickin' here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85nDTnqWlFI Remove any young children from the room prior to listening, Who knew, that allemande stuff? Remarkably sophisticated.
