Red Headed Stranger
recorded by Willie Nelson [3/4 time]
written by Edith Linderman and Carl Stutz
C
The red-headed stranger from Blue Rock, Montana
G7
Rode into town one day
C F C
And under his knees was a raging black stallion
D7 G7
And walking behind was a bay
C
The red-headed stranger had eyes like thunder
G7
And lips that were sad and tight
C F C
His little lost love lay asleep on the hillside
G7 C
And his heart was heavy as night
F
So don't cross him don't boss him
C
He's wild in his sorrow
G7
He's riding and he's hiding his pain
F
Don't fight him don't spite him
C
Just wait 'til tomorrow
G7 C
Maybe he'll ride on again
A yellow-haired lady leaned out of her window
G7
And watched as he passed her way
C F C
And she drew back in fear at the sight of the stallion
D7 G7
But cast greedy eyes on the bay
C
But how could she know that the dancing bay pony
G7
Meant more to him than life
C F C
For this was the horse that his little lost darling
G7 C
Had ridden when she was his wife
F
So don't cross him don't boss him
C
He's wild in his sorrow
G7
He's riding and he's hiding his pain
F
Don't fight him don't spite him
C
Just wait 'til tomorrow
G7 C
Maybe he'll ride on again
The yellow-haired lady went down to the tavern
G7
And looked up the stranger there
C F C
He bought her a drink and he gave her some money
D7 G7
But he just didn't seem to care
C
She followed him out as he saddled his stallion
G7
And laughed as she grabbed at the bay
C F C
He shot her so quick they had no time to warn her
G7 C
She never heard anyone say
F
So don't cross him don't boss him
C
He's wild in his sorrow
G7
He's riding and he's hiding his pain
F
Don't fight him don't spite him
C
Just wait 'til tomorrow
G7 C
Maybe he'll ride on again
The yellow-haired lady was buried at sunset
G7
The stranger went free of course
C F C
For you can't hang a man for killing a woman
D7 G7
Who's trying to steal your horse
C
Now this is the tale of the red-headed stranger
G7
And if he should pass your way
C F C
Stay out of the path of the raging black stallion
G7 C
And don't lay a hand on the bay
