Cry Stampede

The night was ablaze with a heavenly fire of lightnin' wind and rain And the sound of thunder is spookin' the herd and I fear there'll be a stampede The cattle are starting to mill around their bellows strike fear in my heart I know if the storm lasts very much longe there's bound to be a stampede Stampede cry stampede the thing that a cowboy fears the most is stampede As I sat in the sadle the night's wearing on and the storm is lingering still The lightning's glare on the restless herd make it seem like a sea's angry swell Then all of a sudden a bolt of fire strikes the tree where my pony stands As I fall to the ground I can hear the sound of a drover yellin' stampede Stampede cry stampede the thing that a cowboy fears the most is stampede For a moment I lay in the mud half dazed I could hear the herd bearin' down And I crawled in a ditch where a tree came to rest And I crouched between it and the ground It seems like a miracle of God's hand it's over and I'm still alive And I thank the trail boss up in the sky for sparin' me from the stampede Stampede cry stampede the thing that a cowboy fears the most is stampede
