The Deadwood Stage (whip Crack Away) |
Oh! |
The Deadwood Stage is a-rollin' on over the plains |
With the curtains flappin' and the driver slappin' the reins |
Beautiful sky! |
A wonderful day! |
Whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Oh! |
The Deadwood Stage is a-headin' on over the hills |
Where the Injun arrows are thicker than porcupine quills |
Dangerous land! |
No time to delay! |
So, whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
We’re headin' straight for town, loaded down, with a fancy cargo |
Care of Wells and Fargo, Illinois — Boy! |
Oh! |
The Deadwood Stage is a-comin' on over the crest |
Like a homing pigeon that’s a-hankerin' after its nest |
Twenty-three miles we’ve covered today |
So, whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
The wheels go turnin' round, homeward bound |
Can’t you hear 'em humming |
Happy times are coming for to stay — hey! |
We’ll be home tonight by the light of the silvery moon |
And our hearts are thumpin' like a mandolin a-plunking a tune |
When I get home, I’m fixing to stay |
So, whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Whip crack-away! |
Introducin' Henry Miller |
Just as busy as a fizzy sasparilla |
He’s a showman and he’s smarter |
Operates the Golden Garter |
Where the cream of Deadwood City come to dine |
And I’m glad to say he’s a very good friend of mine |
Hi Joe, say where d’you get them fancy clothes? |
I know! |
Off some fellow’s laundry line |
Hi Beau, aren’t you the Prairie Rose |
Smelling like a watermelon vine |
Here’s a man the Sheriff watches |
On his gun there’s more 'n twenty-seven notches |
On the draw there’s no-one faster |
And you’re flirting with disaster |
When Bill Hickok’s reputation you malign |
And I’m glad to say he’s a very good friend, of a friend of mine |
Oh my throats as dry as a desert thistle in May |
In the Golden Garter gonna wet my whistle today |
Last to the bar’s a three-legged crow |
Set 'em up, Joe, set 'em up, Joe, set 'em up Joe |
Set 'em up, Joe! |
