מילים לשיר The Red Headed Stranger – Willie Nelson

The red headed stranger from Blue Rock Montana
And under his knees was a raging black stallion
Rode into town one day
Walking behind was a bay
The Red Headed Stranger had eyes like the thunder
His little lost love, lay asleep on the hillside
And his lips, they were sad and tight
And his heart was heavy this night Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's riding and hiding his pain
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow, maybe he'll ride on again A yellow haired lady leaned out of her window
And watched as he passed her way
She drew back in fear at the sight of the stallion
But cast greedy eyes on the bay
Meant more to him than life
But how could she know that this dancing bay pony
For this was the horse that his little lost darling,
Had ridden when she was his wife. Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's riding and hiding his pain
Just wait till tomorrow, maybe he'll ride on again
Don't fight him, don't spite him The yellow haired lady came down to the tavern
And looked up the stranger there
He bought her a drink and he gave her some money
He just didn't seem to care
He shot her so quick, they had no time to warn her,
She followed him out as he saddled the stallion
And laughed as she grabbed at the bay, She never heard anyone say
Don't cross him, don't boss him
He's wild in his sorrow
He's riding and hiding his pain
Just wait till tomorrow, maybe he'll ride on again
Don't fight him, don't spite him The yellow haired lady was buried at sunset,
The stranger went free of course,
Who's trying to steal your horse
For you can't hang a man for killing a woman
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
Don't cross him, don't boss him
And don't lay a hand on the bay
He's riding and hiding his pain
He's wild in his sorrow
Don't fight him, don't spite him
Just wait till tomorrow, maybe he'll ride on again.
