We camp along Red River the cattle as they bedded down Back at the wagons, after supper We spread our bedrolls on the
And me and Willie, we took the guard And the sage never so sweet The prairie was blazin' silver No chance for a stampede
Way yonder, off in the distance Towards the mountains in the west Did I see lightnin', did I thunder My mind is weary, I use some rest
Then all at once, the wind directions The clouds rolls in behind the These cattle, are gettin' restless God us all, if they stampede
Smell the rain, the thunder The sky, turns black as death The crashes, smell the sulfur It's rank and strong, Satan's breath
The cattle rise up and go to I spur my on and take the lead And across the herd, I can Willie yellin' Hey stampede!
Dust rise, as the rain falls They mix together, the air to mud I feel the longhorns against me And I can feel the demons racin' through my
Then all at once, my stumbles We hit the ground, I up to my knees In the flash of light, I can see the cattle Lord I know I'm die in this stampede
I awake and I look around me I'm in my and I'm layin' on the ground Over there's the and there's the campfire I was only dreamin', but what's that
Then I feel the earth underneath me As the sky begins to bleed And from the I can hear Willie yellin' Hey stampede!
