Somewhere on the Prairie, a yellow runs free Runnin' through the sage brush, down the coolies There not far him, a cowboy rides along He's try to catch him and break him for his own
The chase goes on all morning and late the day The cowboy changes horses, he along the way The stud is growin' weaker, now and gettin' short of He runs into the corral, the cowboy shuts him in
The yellow with wild eye, the feared hated man Finally standin' face to face in the hot and dusty The battle starts and on beneath the burning sun tried but couldn't ride that yellow outlaw stud
So he him to a Rodeo and it spread throughout the land The legend of this yellow stud, the of the bad And one day in Cheyenne we knew it had to come The best of all riders, he drew that yellow stud
The wooden gate flew open and the stud, he out high An explosion of horse seemed to fill the sky The kept getting 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 down back his backbone snapped the yellow stud lay
Well, his gathered 'round him, I heard one of 'em say There'll be another Bronc like the one that died today But out there on the Prairie there's a mare Mustang blood And a runs close behind her, a yellow outlaw stud
