I'm Sleepin' In My Leggin's Tonight Lyrics by Red Steagall
Red Steagall Lyrics
There's a big storm rollin' in, I can feel it in my bones
I'll bet my pay they'll run tonight, but I'm praying that they don't
See the lightnin' flashin' out on the distant plains
The wind sweeps cross my bedroll and the air smells just like rain
So I'm sleepin' in my leggin's tonight
My night horse is tied by my side
When lightnin' cracks and thunder rolls my mouth gets hot and dry
So I'm sleepin' in my leggin's tonight
Reminds me of a stormy night on the Brazos late last spring
They'd settled on the bed ground, when it began to rain
Mighty bolt of lightn' struck the ground and they were gone
Three thousand head of longhorns running madly in the storm
So I'm sleepin' in my leggin's tonight
My night horse is tied by my side
When lightnin' cracks and thunder rolls my mouth gets hot and dry
So I'm sleepin' in my leggin's tonight
Little Jimmy Wilson tryin' hard to turn the lead
Was the first to reach the cattle and got caught in the stampede
When the lightnin' flashed I saw him as his saddle horse went down
He's sleeps 'neath the Chisholm trail beneath a sagebrush covered mound
So I'm sleepin' in my leggin's tonight
My night horse is tied by my side
When lightnin' cracks and thunder rolls my mouth gets hot and dry
So I'm sleepin' in my leggin's tonight
Sight of rushin' cattle can drive a man insane
Longhorns glowing in the darkness, the wind, the hail, the rain
I'm sleepin' in my leggin's tonight
[Thanks to truly for lyrics]
