Somewhere on the Prairie, a stud runs free through the sage brush, down through the coolies There not far behind him, a cowboy along gonna try to catch him and break him for his own
The goes on all morning and late into the day The cowboy changes horses, he along the way The stud is growin' weaker, now and gettin' short of He into the trap corral, the cowboy shuts him in
The stud with wild eye, the feared hated man Finally standin' face to in the hot and dusty sand The battle starts and on beneath the burning sun Cowboy tried but couldn't ride that outlaw stud
So he sold him to a Rodeo and it spread the land The of this yellow stud, the baddest of the bad And then one day in Cheyenne we it had to come The best of all Bronc riders, he drew that yellow
The wooden gate open and the stud, he bailed out high An explosion of yellow horse to fill the sky The stud kept getting stronger and thrashing up the Cowboy blew a stirrup, into the dirt
So violently the stud had bucked he slipped and fell As he went down back his snapped the yellow stud lay still
Well, his cowboys gathered him, I heard one of 'em say There'll never be another like the one that died today But out there on the Prairie there's a mare with Mustang And a colt runs close behind her, a outlaw stud
