Vaughn Monroe - The Phantom Stagecoach lyrics

Artist: Vaughn Monroe

album: Presenting Vaughn Monroe


The night stage out of Abilene was wrecked in '65
11 souls were on that coach, not one was left alive
Old timers often shiver when they hear the grisly tale
For they say the devil and his coach were seen along that trail
And the phantom stage goes by
As the vultures circle high
And it's horses scream with fright as it thunders through the night
The phantom stage that haunts the canyon train
Twas a gal the name of Sue that the trouble started through
And a box of golden nuggets, so we're told
She had turned the gambler down and that night was leaving town
So he planned to get the woman and the gold
He waited on the canyon as the light was growing dim
The first shot hit the driver as the coach got to the rim
He dashed the maddened horses but they hadn't far to go
They slipped, and overshot the rim, and disappeared below
And the phantom stage goes by
As the vultures circle high
And it's horses scream with fright as it thunders through the night
The phantom stage that haunts the canyon train
At dawn they searched the ground but the wreck was never found
And if you pass that spot you're not alone
For at midnight on the trail, the lost souls tell their tale
And they whisper that the devil took his own
And the phantom stage goes by
As the vultures circle high
And it's horses scream with fright as it thunders through the night
The phantom stage that haunts the canyon train
