Somewhere on the Prairie, a stud runs free Runnin' through the brush, down through the coolies There not far behind him, a cowboy rides He's gonna try to him and break him for his own
The chase goes on all morning and into the day The cowboy changes horses, he along the way The stud is growin' weaker, now and short of wind He runs into the trap corral, the cowboy him in
The yellow with wild eye, the feared hated man Finally standin' face to in the hot and dusty sand The starts and rages on beneath the burning sun Cowboy tried but couldn't ride that outlaw stud
So he sold him to a Rodeo and it throughout the land The legend of yellow stud, the baddest of the bad And then one day in Cheyenne we it had to come The best of all riders, he drew that yellow stud
The wooden flew open and the stud, he bailed out high An explosion of yellow horse to fill the sky The stud kept stronger and thrashing up the earth Cowboy a stirrup, crashed into the dirt
So violently the had bucked that he slipped and fell As he went back his backbone snapped the yellow stud lay still
Well, his cowboys gathered 'round him, I one of 'em say There'll never be another like the one that died today But out on the Prairie there's a mare with Mustang blood And a colt runs close behind her, a yellow stud
