Rita Ballou Vince Gill
[Verse 1]
[D#]How could she dance that slow bandera
[G#]Shuffle to some cowboy hustle
[D#]How she makes those trophy buckles sh[A#]ine, shine, shine
[D#]Wild-eyed and Mexican silvered
[G#]Trickin' dumb ol' Cousin Willard
[D#]Into thinkin' that he's g[A#]ot her this ti[D#]me
[Cborus]
[G#]Hill country honky tonkin' Rita Ball[D#]ou
E[D#]very beer joint in town has played the fool for [A#]you
B[G#]ackslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ba[D#]llou
[D#]Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not r[A#]ide a bull for y[D#]ou
[Verse 2]
[D#]She's a rawhide, rope, and velvet mixture
[G#]Walkin' talkin' Texas texture
[D#]High timin' barroom fixture ki[E#]nd of a g[A#]irl
S[D#]he's the Queen of the Cowboys
L[G#]ook at ol' Willard grinnin' now boys
Y[D#]ou'd a thought there's l[A#]ess fools in this w[D#]orld (but there wasn't)
[Cborus]
[G#]Hill country honky tonkin' Rita Ball[D#]ou
E[D#]very beer joint in town has played the fool for [A#]you
B[G#]ackslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ba[D#]llou
[D#]Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not r[A#]ide a bull for y[D#]ou

[Bridge]
S[G#]o good luck Willard and here's to ya
A[D#]nd here's to Rita and I hope she'll do ya
R[A#]ide all night
L[A#]ord I wish I was the f[A#7]ool in your j[D#]eans
[Cborus]
[G#]Hill country honky tonkin' Rita Ball[D#]ou
E[D#]very beer joint in town has played the fool for [A#]you
