We made camp Red River Watched the cattle as they down Back at the wagons, right after We spread our bedrolls on the
And me and Willie, we took the guard And the sage never so sweet The moon was blazin' silver No tonight for a stampede
Way over yonder, off in the Towards the there 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 rolls in behind the tumbleweeds longhorn 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 and strong, it's Satan's breath
The cattle rise up and go to I spur my on and take the lead And across the herd, I can hear Willie Hey stampede!
Dust clouds rise, as the falls They mix together, the air to mud I feel the longhorns against me And I can feel the demons racin' through my
all at once, my pony stumbles We hit the ground, I rise up to my In the of light, I can see the cattle comin' Lord I know I'm gonna die in this
I awake and I look around me I'm in my bedroll and I'm on the ground Over there's the wagon and there's the I was only dreamin', but what's sound?
Then I feel the earth underneath me As the midnight sky begins to And from the blackness I can hear yellin' Hey stampede!
