Verse 3. Ten thousand cattle on the run Pray for an early morning sun Lightning stabs the skies Cattle drop and never rise, stampede! Verse 4. Ten thousand cattle in flight The devilās ridinā herd tonight The thunder of the hooves and the fury from the skies Donāt get out in front or every man dies Repeat Bridge Verse 5. (Spoken) Cold black clouds like funeral shrouds Roll down their icy threat And we face to fight this raging night With odds on the side death Verse 6. (Spoken) For a stampeding herd When itās panic is stirred Is a thing for a cowboy to shun For no mortal man ever holds command When the cattle are on the run (sung) Stampede! Verse 7. The rising of the wind sends out its wail Drivinā cattle down an endless trail Rollinā thunder booms sending cattle to their doom Stampede! Repeat Bridge Stampede!
