Stampede

Stampede is close behind us, can my pony get us free?

The thunderin' herd is gainin', dust to spell our destiny

Stampedin' hoofs are beatin' death upon the ground

I know my pony shares my fears of the meaning of this sound

We feel their hot breath on us as they close the gap between

Their red eyes shootin' fire their bodies gaunt and lean

Please answer this prayer father, please hear us as we call

Don't let my pony stumble, Lord, don't let my pony fall

Stampede (Stampede Stampede Stampede)

Thunderin' through the night

Ten thousand cattle runnin' wild

With fire in their eyes

Today a ranch fire spooked them and filled their hearts with rage

Now they charge down a forest us through the prickly pear and sage

This cowboy and his pony have butt one chance to succeed

To reach that pass up yonder is their most important need

A fleeting vision's in my mind of the happy days we spent

Herdin' these same doggies to their pastures of content

Lord up above please hear us and grant us this one deed

Don't let my pony stumble, god, our way through this stampede

Stampede (Stampede Stampede Stampede)

Thunderin' through the night

Ten thousand cattle runnin' wild

With fire in their eyes

Then came a clash of lightning as the heavens opened wide

A downpour fell upon us and cooled their flamin' hides

Mighty roars of thunder as God heard the cries at last

And guided this poor cowboy and his pony through the pass

Stampede (Stampede Stampede Stampede)

Thunderin' through the night

Ten thousand cattle runnin' wild

With fire in their eyes

Ten thousand cattle runnin' wild

With fire in their eyes
