WAGON TRAIN

 

     Roll along,

     Wagon Train!

 

Rollin' over prairie where there ain't no grass,

Rollin' over mountain where there ain't no pass.

     Sittin' on a board

     Eyin' the weather.

     Prayin' to the Lord

     We stay together

Side by side on the Wagon Train.

 

     Wagon train,

     Roll along!

 

Pickin' up a passenger in every town,

Wonderin' if he's ever gonna shoot you down.

     Lookin' for a pal,

     Ain't it a pity,

     Lookin' for a gal,

     Needn't be pretty

If she'll ride on the Wagon Train.

 

Wagons, ho!

Gotta keep 'em on the run.

Time to go,

And follow the sun!

 

     Roll along,

     Wagon Train!

 

Never had a cabin and a general store.

Only had a wagon and a forty-four.

     Sittin' on a board

     Eyin' the weather.

     Prayin' to the Lord

     We stay together

Side by side on the Wagon Train.

 

Wagons, ho!

Gotta keep 'em on the run.

Time to go,

And follow the sun!

 

     Roll along,

     Wagon Train!

 

Rollin' over prairie where there ain't no grass,

Rollin' over mountain where there ain't no pass.

     Sittin' on a board

     Eyin' the weather.

     Prayin' to the Lord

     We stay together

Side by side on the Wagon Train.

 

     Wagon train,

     Roll along!
