When The Cimarron Was Red And On The Rise (Album Version) - Red Steagall[00:00:00]

Riding back to Texas[00:00:11]

From a drive to abilene[00:00:13]

With the wagon[00:00:15]

The remuda and the crew[00:00:16]

The cimarron was boiling red and rising[00:00:20]

By the hour[00:00:23]

It was suicide to push the horses through[00:00:24]

Cotty bill was pining by his darling Anna Lee[00:00:29]

He left her crying back in san anton[00:00:34]

A thousand times he red the note he carried in[00:00:38]

His jeans[00:00:42]

Cotty darling won't you hurry home[00:00:43]

But trailing longhorn cattle is a life at[00:00:47]

Wild and free[00:00:51]

And the prairie is a puncher's paradise[00:00:53]

But it was dark and deadly in the Spring of 83[00:00:58]

When the cimarron was red and on the rise[00:01:03]

We were at the wagon[00:01:08]

Playin' cards and[00:01:10]

Tellin' lies[00:01:12]

When he announced that he was goin' on[00:01:13]

We told him he was crazy[00:01:17]

He would never make it through[00:01:20]

But cotty smiled and saddled up the roan[00:01:22]

Then I made him a promise[00:01:27]

I'd look after Anna Lee[00:01:29]

In case he didn't make it through the night[00:01:31]

He turned his collar to the wind and bid us adios[00:01:36]

And whistling dixie he ruled out of sight[00:01:41]

And trailing longhorn cattle is a life at[00:01:45]

Wild and free[00:01:48]

But the devil is playing hell in paradise[00:01:51]

'Cause it was dark and deadly in the Spring of 83[00:01:55]

When the cimarron was red and on the rise[00:02:01]

It was nearly seven days before we got across[00:02:11]

The roan was in the shadow of a hill[00:02:15]

He was skinned from head to toe and covered[00:02:20]

Up with mud[00:02:23]

But there was not a sign of cotty bill[00:02:24]

Oh I guess we knew that he was gone[00:02:29]

When we looked anyhow[00:02:31]

The road for a mile and searched on either side[00:02:33]

We combed the brush and dragged our ropes in[00:02:38]

Every waterhole[00:02:41]

But cotty bill had taken his last ride[00:02:43]

And I kept my promise and I married Anna Lee[00:02:47]

And the boy we're raising has his daddy's eyes[00:02:53]

Someday I'll tell him more about the Spring of 83[00:02:58]

When the cimarron was red and on the rise[00:03:03]

'Cause it was dark and deadly in the Spring of 83[00:03:08]

When the cimarron was red and on the rise[00:03:13]
