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