Red Headed Stranger - Chris Ledoux[00:00:00]
Written by:Stutz Carl/Calisch Edith L.[00:00:01]
Now the redheaded stranger from blue rock Montana[00:00:06]
Rode into town one day[00:00:10]
Between his knees was a raging black stallion[00:00:14]
Walkin' behind was a bay[00:00:17]
Now the redheaded stranger had eyes like the thunder[00:00:21]
His lips were sad and tight[00:00:25]
Cause his little lost love lay asleep on the hillside[00:00:28]
And his heart was heavy as night[00:00:32]
So don't boss him don't cross him[00:00:36]
He's wild in his sorrow he's riding and hidin' his pain[00:00:38]
Don't fight him don't spite him[00:00:45]
Just wait 'til tomorrow maybe he'll ride on again[00:00:47]
Now the yellow haired lady leaned out of her window[00:00:56]
And watched as he passed her away[00:01:01]
She drew back in fear at the sight of the stallion[00:01:05]
But cast greedy eyes on the bay[00:01:09]
But she didn't know that this dancin' bay pony[00:01:14]
Meant more to him than life[00:01:18]
Cause this was the horse that his little lost darlin'[00:01:22]
She was his wife[00:01:27]
So don't boss him don't cross him[00:01:30]
He's wild in his sorrow he's riding and hidin' his pain[00:01:33]
Don't fight him don't spite him[00:01:39]
Just wait 'til tomorrow maybe he'll ride on again[00:01:41]
Now the yellow haired lady went down to the tavern[00:01:50]
And looked up the stranger there[00:01:55]
When he bought her some drinks and he gave her some money[00:01:58]
But she just didn't seem to care[00:02:03]
She followed him out as he saddled the stallion[00:02:07]
And he laughed when she grabbed for the bay[00:02:11]
Well he shot her so quick they had no time to warn her[00:02:16]
She never heard anyone say[00:02:20]
Don't boss him don't cross him[00:02:24]
He's wild in his sorrow he's riding and hidin' his pain[00:02:26]
Don't fight him don't spite him[00:02:32]
Just wait 'til tomorrow maybe he'll ride on again[00:02:34]
Now the yellow haired lady was buried at sunset[00:02:43]
The stranger went free of course[00:02:47]
Cause you can't hang a man for shootin' a woman[00:02:50]
Who's tryin' to steal your horse[00:02:53]
Now this is the tale of the redheaded stranger[00:02:57]
And if he should ever pass your way[00:03:01]
Stay out of the path of the raging black stallion[00:03:04]
And don't lay a hand on the bay[00:03:08]
