Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴Well it's 40 below and I don't give a fuck,
Got a heater in my truck and I'm off to the rodeo
It's an alla man left and alla man right
Come on you fuckin' dummy get your right step right
Get off stage you god damn goof you know
You piss me off, you fuckin' jerk
You get on my nervesHere comes Johnny with his pecker in his hand,
He's a one ball man and he's off to the rodeo
It's an alla man left and alla man right
Come on you fuckin' dummy get your right step right
Get off stage you god damn goof you know
You piss me off, you fuckin' jerk
You get on my nerves
Well it's 40 below and I ain't got a truck
and I don't give a fuck 'cause I'm off to the rodeo
Where it's an alla man left and alla man right
Come on you fuckin' dummy get your right step right
Get off stage you god damn goof you know
You piss me off, you fuckin' jerk

Here comes Johnny with his pecker in his hand,
He's a one ball man and he's off to the rodeo
It's an alla man left and alla man right
Come on you fuckin' dummy get your right step right
Get off stage you god damn goof you know
You piss me off, you fuckin' jerk
You get on my nerves
Overall Meaning
"The Rodeo Song" by David Allan Coe is a humorous song about one man's experiences at a rodeo. The first verse of the song describes the cold weather, but the singer doesn't seem to mind because he has a heater in his truck and is headed to the rodeo. The chorus repeats the phrase "alla man left and alla man right," which refers to a specific type of rodeo event where cowboys ride horses and attempt to lasso steers.
The second verse introduces a character named Johnny who is described as having only one testicle. The chorus repeats again with the addition of the phrase "come on you fuckin' dummy, get your right step right," which serves as a humorous commentary on the perceived lack of intelligence of the rodeo performers. The song concludes with a final chorus and the repeated phrase "you piss me off, you fuckin' jerk, you get on my nerves."
Overall, the song is a tongue-in-cheek portrayal of the rodeo world and the colorful characters who inhabit it. The use of profanity and crude humor adds to the comedic effect of the song.

Well it's 40 below and I don't give a fuck,
