Buffalo Zone is the third studio album by American country music duo Sweethearts of the Rodeo, released in 1990 via Columbia Records. The album's cover was an obvious homage to The Byrds' 1968 album Sweetheart of the Rodeo, from which the duo derived their name. The album was not as successful as their first two albums, Sweethearts of the Rodeo and One Time, One Night. Notable songs include "Uphill All the Way", "This Heart" (Billboard #25), "Hard Road to Go", and "Cómo Se Dice (I Love You)", although none charted very high.
