The red-headed stranger from Blue Rock Montana[00:00:05]
Rode into town one day[00:00:10]
And under his knees was a raging black stallion[00:00:14]
Walking behind was a bay[00:00:19]
The red-headed stranger had eyes like the thunder[00:00:24]
His lips they were sad and tight[00:00:28]
His little lost love lay asleep on the hillside[00:00:33]
And his heart was heavy as night[00:00:37]
Don't cross him don't boss him[00:00:42]
He's wild in his sorrow[00:00:44]
He's riding and hiding his pain[00:00:46]
Don't fight him don't spite him[00:00:51]
Just wait till tomorrow[00:00:53]
Maybe he'll ride on again[00:00:56]
A yellow-haired lady leaned out of her window[00:01:03]
Watched as he passed her way[00:01:08]
She drew back in fear at the sight of the stallion[00:01:12]
But cast greedy eyes on the bay[00:01:17]
But how could she know that this dancing bay pony[00:01:21]
Meant more to him than life[00:01:26]
For this was the horse that his little lost darling[00:01:31]
Had ridden when she was his wife[00:01:35]
Don't cross him don't boss him[00:01:39]
He's wild in his sorrow[00:01:42]
He's riding and hiding his pain[00:01:44]
Don't fight him don't spite him[00:01:48]
Just wait till tomorrow[00:01:51]
Maybe he'll ride on again[00:01:54]
The yellow-haired lady came down to the tavern[00:02:01]
Looked up the stranger there[00:02:05]
He bought her a drink and he gave her some money[00:02:10]
He just didn't seem to care[00:02:14]
She followed him out as he saddled his stallion[00:02:19]
And laughed as she grabbed at the bay[00:02:23]
He shot her so quick they had no time to warn her[00:02:28]
She never heard anyone say[00:02:32]
Don't cross him don't boss him[00:02:36]
He's wild in his sorrow[00:02:39]
He's riding and hiding his pain[00:02:41]
Don't fight him don't spite him[00:02:45]
Just wait till tomorrow[00:02:48]
Maybe he'll ride on again[00:02:50]
The yellow-haired lady was buried at sunset[00:02:57]
The stranger went free of course[00:03:01]
For you can't hang a man for killing a woman[00:03:06]
Who's trying to steal your horse[00:03:11]
This is the tale of the red headed stranger[00:03:15]
And if he should pass your way[00:03:19]
Stay out of the path of the raging black stallion[00:03:24]
And don't lay a hand on the bay[00:03:28]
Don't cross him don't boss him[00:03:32]
He's wild in his sorrow[00:03:34]
He's riding and hiding his pain[00:03:37]
Don't fight him don't spite him[00:03:41]
Just wait till tomorrow[00:03:43]
Maybe he'll ride on again[00:03:46]
