| Chris Ledoux - Stampede | |
| @ @ | |
| We made camp along Red River | |
| Watched the cattle as they bedded down | |
| Back at the wagons, right after supper | |
| We spread our bedrolls on the ground | |
| And me and Willie, we took the night guard | |
| And the sage never smelled so sweet | |
| The prairie moon, was blazin' silver | |
| No chance tonight for a stampede | |
| Way over yonder, off in the distance | |
| Towards the mountains there in the west | |
| Did I see lightnin', did I hear thunder | |
| My mind is weary, I could use some rest | |
| Then all at once, the wind shifts directions | |
| The clouds roll in behind the tumbleweeds | |
| These longhorn cattle, are gettin' restless | |
| God help us all, if they stampede | |
| Smell the rain, hear the thunder | |
| The midnight sky, turns black as death | |
| The lightnin' crashes, smell the sulphur | |
| It's rank and strong, it's Satan's breath | |
| The cattle rise up, and go to runnin' | |
| I spur my pony on and take the lead | |
| And across the herd, I can hear Willie yellin' | |
| Hey Stampede! | |
| Dust clouds rise, as the rain falls | |
| They mix together, turn the air to mud | |
| I feel the longhorns brush against me | |
| And I can feel the demons racin' through my blood | |
| Then all at once, my pony stumbles | |
| We hit the ground, I rise up to my knees | |
| In a flash of light, I can see the cattle comin' | |
| Lord I know I'm gonna die in this stampede | |
| Then I awake, and I look around me | |
| I'm in my bedroll and I'm layin' on the ground | |
| Over there's the wagon, and there's the campfire | |
| I was only dreamin', but what's that sound? | |
| Then I feel the earth tremble underneath me | |
| As the midnight sky begins to bleed | |
| And from the blackness I can hear Willie yellin' | |
| Hey Stampede |
