Utah Carrol - Marty Robbins[00:00:00]

And now my friends you've asked me[00:00:05]

What makes me sad and still[00:00:08]

And why my brow is darkened[00:00:11]

Like the clouds upon the hill[00:00:14]

Run in your ponies closer[00:00:17]

And I'll tell to you my tale[00:00:19]

Of Utah Carol my partner[00:00:22]

And his last ride on the trail[00:00:25]

We rode the range together[00:00:28]

And rode it side by side[00:00:31]

I loved him like a brother [00:00:34]

And I wept when Utah died[00:00:36]

We were rounding up one morning[00:00:39]

When work was almost done[00:00:42]

When on his side the cattle[00:00:45]

Started on a frightened run[00:00:48]

Underneath the saddle[00:00:51]

That the boss's daughter rode[00:00:53]

Utah that very morning[00:00:56]

Had placed a bright red robe[00:00:59]

So the saddle might ride[00:01:02]

Easy for Lenore his little friend[00:01:04]

And it was this red blanket[00:01:07]

That brought him to his end[00:01:10]

The blanket was now dragging[00:01:13]

Behind her on the ground[00:01:16]

The frightened cattle saw it[00:01:19]

And charged it with a bound[00:01:22]

Lenore then saw her danger[00:01:25]

And turned her pony's face[00:01:27]

And leaning in the saddle tied[00:01:30]

The blanket to its place[00:01:33]

But in leaning lost her balance [00:01:36]

Fell in front of that wild tide[00:01:38]

"Lay still Lenore I'm coming"[00:01:41]

Were the words that Utah cried[00:01:44]

His faithful pony saw her[00:01:47]

And reached her with a bound[00:01:50]

I thought he'd been successful [00:01:53]

And raised her from the ground[00:01:56]

But the weight upon the saddle[00:01:58]

Had not been felt before[00:02:01]

His backcinch snapped like thunder[00:02:04]

And he fell by Lenore[00:02:07]

Picking up the blanket[00:02:10]

He swung it over his head[00:02:13]

And started cross the prairie [00:02:15]

"Lay still Lenore" he said[00:02:18]

When he got the stampede turned[00:02:21]

And saved Lenore his friend[00:02:24]

He turned to face the cattle[00:02:27]

And meet his fatal end[00:02:29]

His six gun flashed like lightning [00:02:32]

The report rang loud and clear[00:02:35]

As the cattle rushed and killed him[00:02:38]

He dropped the leading steer[00:02:41]

On his funeral morning[00:02:44]

I heard the preacher say[00:02:46]

I hope we'll all meet Utah[00:02:49]

At the roundup far away[00:02:52]

Then they wrapped him in a blanket[00:02:55]

That saved his little friend[00:02:58]

And it was this red blanket[00:03:00]

That brought him to his end[00:03:03]
