Lyrics The Oregan Trail - Burl Ives

The Oregan Trail

Wagon train go windin' cross the prairie
Rollin' onward through the storm and gale
Toward the land of dreams
trudge the old ox teams
Down the Oregon Trail
Through the night the Lord is in the saddle
Riding herd beneath the moon so pale
Watching o’er ach stray
till the break of day
Down the Oregon Trail
There’ll be apples on each branch in Oregon
There’ll be valleys filled with golden grain
There’ll be cattle on each ranch in Oregon
For there’ll be plenty sun and rain
Hurry up old pioneer, keep movin'
Your faithful little band must never fail
Cross the Great Divide
Side by side we’ll ride
Down the Oregon Trail
Down the Oregon Trail
There’ll be apples on each branch in Oregon
There’ll be valleys filled with golden grain
There’ll be cattle on each ranch in Oregon
For there’ll be plenty sun and rain
Hurry up old pioneer, keep movin'
Your faithful little band must never fail
Cross the Great Divide
Side by side we’ll ride
Down the Oregon Trail
Down the Oregon Trail
