Share
Vincent Neil Emerson’s laid-back delivery and his lyrical wit shine through, making Rodeo Clown both a fun and introspective addition to his catalog.
“It’s pure and true Honky Tonkin’ Texas Twang. Rodeo Clown is a song about that person we all know, who is the star of their own show, wherever they go. Just gotta smile.”
– Vincent Neil Emerson
Kicked out of all the bars in town, “I wore out my welcome long ago”, this song is a portrait of a someone down on their luck and trying to figure out life. Now he’s “just a rodeo clown”, reflecting on the mess he’s made. The imagery of a rodeo clown adds a layer of humor and sadness, blending the lightheartedness of a clown with the vulnerability of someone who’s been beaten down.
