| [00:33.35] |
We made camp along Red River |
| [00:37.30] |
Watched the cattle as they bedded down |
| [00:40.91] |
Back at the wagons, right after supper |
| [00:46.17] |
We spread our bedrolls on the ground |
| [00:49.04] |
And me and Willie, we took the night guard |
| [00:52.92] |
And the sage never smelled so sweet |
| [00:57.06] |
The prairie moon, was blazin' silver |
| [01:00.82] |
No chance tonight for a stampede |
| [01:06.82] |
Way over yonder, off in the distance |
| [01:10.69] |
Towards the mountains there in the west |
| [01:14.76] |
Did I see lightnin', did I hear thunder |
| [01:18.63] |
My mind is weary, I could use some rest |
| [01:22.69] |
Then all at once, the wind shifts directions |
| [01:26.63] |
The clouds roll in behind the tumbleweeds |
| [01:30.63] |
These longhorn cattle, are gettin' restless |
| [01:34.45] |
God help us all, if they stampede |
| [01:40.63] |
Smell the rain, hear the thunder |
| [01:44.57] |
The midnight sky, turns black as death |
| [01:48.63] |
The lightnin' crashes, smell the sulphur |
| [01:52.38] |
It's rank and strong, it's Satan's breath |
| [01:56.51] |
The cattle rise up, and go to runnin' |
| [02:00.26] |
I spur my pony on and take the lead |
| [02:04.26] |
And across the herd, I can hear Willie yellin' |
| [02:08.20] |
Hey Stampede! |
| [02:46.26] |
Dust clouds rise, as the rain falls |
| [02:50.13] |
They mix together, turn the air to mud |
| [02:53.94] |
I feel the longhorns brush against me |
| [02:57.76] |
And I can feel the demons racin' through my blood |
| [03:01.88] |
Then all at once, my pony stumbles |
| [03:05.88] |
We hit the ground, I rise up to my knees |
| [03:09.76] |
In a flash of light, I can see the cattle comin' |
| [03:13.69] |
Lord I know I'm gonna die in this stampede |
| [03:19.94] |
Then I awake, and I look around me |
| [03:23.82] |
I'm in my bedroll and I'm layin' on the ground |
| [03:27.63] |
Over there's the wagon, and there's the campfire |
| [03:31.63] |
I was only dreamin', but what's that sound? |
| [03:37.70] |
Then I feel the earth tremble underneath me |
| [03:41.70] |
As the midnight sky begins to bleed |
| [03:45.57] |
And from the blackness I can hear Willie yellin' |
| [03:49.51] |
Hey Stampede |
