THIS AINT MY FIRST RODEO
Rob has spent many years training horses and showing them in the Cutting Arena. With Primetime Shorty, Chulas Hickory and Phelps Ninth Gold, Rob took home multiple titles from 2009-2015. His name can be found in every Highpoint List of the National Cutting Horse Association of Germany during his active years.
​
To train horses and their owners has been a lot of fun, as well as competing in Cutting Shows. With his song he takes us into the deep sand of a Cutting Pen and the song clearly conveys the feeling that this the lyrics did really happen.
​
The idea for the song came to his mind thinking of the English saying "This Ain't My First Rodeo", which actually has the meaning "I am not doing something for the first time!". It is said in any life situation without talking about a real rodeo. The transfer of these words back to their original meaning to equestrianism was a great move.
​
Pat Alger was part of the Songwriting Team on this song, songwriter Hall of Famer, who wrote e.g "Thunder Rolls" performed by Garth Brooks.
Released in December 2018, the song had his debut at US Commercial and Non-Commercial Radio Stations late January 2019 and found the way into the US Country and AC (Adult Contemporary) Radio Charts in February. In Germany it is on radio rotation at rautemusik.fm/country and www.countrymusic24.com !
It is also played on radio in South Africa, Canada, Australia, Italy, France or Switzerland.
Inspired by his idols Kenny Rogers and Willie Nelson, Rob tries to put personal experiences into his songs and tell stories of his life. Real Country Stories!

Hey kid I was once like you
Full of spit with a lot to prove
But listen up lets talk it through
I can tell you're new to this
​
​
​
Tighten up your saddle straps
You'll break a finger holding the horn like that
Trust your horse
Keep your eye on the cattle
That's just my two cents

Chorus
This ain't my first rodeo
My first one was
Holdin' my breath
Covered in sweat
My heart beating out of my chest
You know the feeling you get
When you've found something you love
This ain't my first rodeo
But I wish it was
LYRICS

ENGLISH
I've been workin' arenas for years
I know how winning that buckle feels
And I've waited for bones to heal
So I could get up in the saddle again
To feel that first time adrenaline
But I'm just not the buck that I was back then
​
Bridge
My eyes ain't sharp like yours are
My muscles ain't as strong
Only reason I can do so well is
I've been doing it so long
I'm telling you my secret
Cause I see you've got the curse
Ride every single rodeo
Like it's your very first
