Текст песни Willie Nelson - Red Headed Stranger

Red Headed Stranger
Willie Nelson
The red-headed stranger from Blue Rock, Montana

Rode into town one day

And under his knees was a raging black stallion

And walking behind was a bay

The red-headed stranger had eyes like thunder

And lips that were sad and tight

His little lost love lay asleep on the hillside

And his heart was heavy as night

So don't cross him don't boss him

He's wild in his sorrow

He's riding and he's hiding his pain

Don't fight him don't spite him

Just wait 'til tomorrow

Maybe he'll ride on again

 yellow-haired lady leaned out of her window

And watched as he passed her way

And she drew back in fear at the sight of the stallion

But cast greedy eyes on the bay

But how could she know that the dancing bay pony

Meant more to him than life

For this was the horse that his little lost darling

Had ridden when she was his wife

So don't cross him don't boss him

He's wild in his sorrow

He's riding and he's hiding his pain

Don't fight him don't spite him

Just wait 'til tomorrow

Maybe he'll ride on again

The yellow-haired lady went down to the tavern

And looked up the stranger there

He bought her a drink and he gave her some money

But he just didn't seem to care

She followed him out as he saddled his stallion

And laughed as she grabbed at the bay

He shot her so quick they had no time to warn her

She never heard anyone say

So don't cross him don't boss him

He's wild in his sorrow

He's riding and he's hiding his pain

Don't fight him don't spite him

Just wait 'til tomorrow

Maybe he'll ride on again

The yellow-haired lady was buried at sunset

The stranger went free of course

For you can't hang a man for killing a woman

Who's trying to steal your horse

Now this is the tale of the red-headed stranger

And if he should pass your way

Stay out of the path of the raging black stallion

And don't lay a hand on the bay

So don't cross him don't boss him

He's wild in his sorrow

He's riding and he's hiding his pain

Don't fight him don't spite him

Just wait 'til tomorrow

Maybe he'll ride on again
