Stampede — текст песни (Chris Ledoux)





We made camp along red river

Watched the cattle as they bedded down

Back at the wagons, right after supper

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

The mind is weary, I could use some rest

Then all at once, the wind shifts directions

The clouds roll in behind the tumbleweeds

Those 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

Its rank and strong, as satans 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

I can feel the demons racing 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 Im gonna die in this stampede



Then I awake, and I look around me

Im in my bedroll and Im layin on the ground

Over theres the wagon, and theres the campfire

I was only dreamin, whats that sound?

And 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
