1
The night was a-blaze with the heavenly fire
2
Of lightnin', wind, and rain.
3
And the sound of thunder is spookin' the herd
4
And I fear there'll be a stampede.
5
The cattle are starting to mill around,
6
Their bellows strike fear in my heart.
7
I know if the stom lasts very much longer,
8
There's bound to be a stampede.
9
"Stampede!" (echo: "Stampede!")
10
Cry "Stampede!" (cry "Stampede!")
11
The thing that a cowboy fears the most
12
Is "Stampede!"
13
As I sit in the saddle, the night's wearin' on
14
And the storm is lingering still.
15
The lightnin's glare on the restless herd
16
Makes it seem like a sea's angry swell.
17
Then, all of a sudden, a bolt of fire
18
Strikes the tree where my pony stands.
19
As I fall to the ground, I can hear the sound
20
Of a drover yellin' "Stampede!"
21
"Stampede!" (echo: "Stampede!")
22
Cry "Stampede!" (cry "Stampede!")
23
The thing that a cowboy fears the most
24
Is "Stampede!"
25
For a moment I lay in the mud half dazed.
26
I could hear the herd bearin' down.
27
And I crawled in a ditch where a tree came to rest
28
And I crouched between it and the ground.
29
It seems like a miracle of God's hand.
30
It's over and I'm still alive
31
And I thank the "Trail Boss" up in the sky
32
For sparin' me from the stampede.
33
"Stampede!" (echo: "Stampede!")
34
Cry "Stampede!" (cry "Stampede!")
35
The thing that a cowboy fears the most
36
Is "Stampede!"
