Old Red - Marty Robbins[00:00:02]

Old Red was one of the onriest yet[00:00:04]

I'd seen at the big rodeo[00:00:08]

He'd bite you and kick you and stomp out your life [00:00:12]

Old Red had never been rode [00:00:16]

Meaner than sin wild as the wind[00:00:20]

That blew on the Montana plains[00:00:23]

Old Red was one of the last of his kind[00:00:27]

And wasn't about to be tamed [00:00:31]

From Idaho a young cowboy came[00:00:35]

To ride in the big rodeo[00:00:39]

The young cowboy's name was Billy McLain[00:00:42]

And Billy had never been thrown [00:00:46]

The greatest desire filled young Billy's heart[00:00:50]

To ride this old outlaw called Red[00:00:54]

He drew him one day and I heard Billy say[00:00:57]

''I'll ride him or drop over dead ''[00:01:01]

Old Red was wicked down there in the shoot[00:01:06]

He was kickin' and stompin' about[00:01:09]

Billy climbed into the saddle with ease[00:01:13]

Then yelled ''Turn 'em loose let us out ''[00:01:16]

Old Red came out with his head on the ground[00:01:20]

His back hooves were touchin' his nose[00:01:24]

Tryin' to get rid of the man on his back[00:01:28]

But the man went wherever he'd go [00:01:32]

Billy was rackin' Old Red with his spurs[00:01:36]

From the tail to the tip of his chin[00:01:39]

He was doin' right well but Billy could tell[00:01:43]

This outlaw would never give in [00:01:47]

Old Red was runnin' straight for the fence[00:01:51]

Suddenly stoppin' and then[00:01:55]

He reared on his hind legs then fell on his back[00:01:58]

Takin' poor Billy with him [00:02:02]

There was a hush in the crowd and they knew[00:02:06]

This would be Billy's last ride[00:02:10]

The saddle horn crushed Billy's chest when they fell[00:02:14]

And under Old Red Billy died [00:02:17]

Old Red lay still no more would he move[00:02:21]

The cowboys that seen it could tell[00:02:25]

In trying to throw Billy off his back[00:02:28]

Old Red broke his neck when he fell [00:02:32]

Out in the west is the place where they rest[00:02:36]

This cowboy that never was thrown[00:02:40]

And one foot away restin' there neath the clay[00:02:44]

Was the outlaw that never was rode[00:02:47]
