In the Arizona sunlight
In the Colorado moonlight
When she gets there it's gonna feel alright
Now she's feeling so tired
She got her big bay horse
The one she calls the Rolling Sun
The hard running faithful one
Out in front of all the rest
She's a barrel racing angel
Out there somewhere in the west
Well I wish you could've seen them
At the short go in Cheyenne
Old Sunny's rolling like a thunderstorm
Fast as lightning on the plain
Now they're tired and sore
But they gotta go some more
On the road to Las Vegas
There is no place to rest
She's a barrel racing angel
Out there somewhere in the west
Bridge:
Cowgirls are special when they follow their dreams
Every race is a brand new start
Some are running for the sake of running
Some are running from a broken heart
Just one thing you gotta know
You can't hold her, you gotta let her go
You can't catch a silhouette
She's like ice, she's like fire
They're gonna fly as one
She and Rolling Sun
Out among the stars
Ahead of all the rest
She's a barrel racing angel
Out there somewhere in the west
She's a barrel racing angel
Out there somewhere in the west
From the album All The Good'uns 1996 Stony Plain Records
