Twelve more miles to Tucumcari |
I’ve been hurrying there |
To the gal I’m gonna marry |
With the yellowest hair |
{Left right march along |
I’ve just gotta get home} (just gotta get home) |
Ten more miles to Tucumcari |
Then I’ll never more roam |
(Tucumcari, Tucumcari, I just gotta get home) |
Eight more miles to Tucumcari |
It’s the fourth of July |
Been three years in January |
Since I kissed her goodbye |
{Left right march along |
I’ve just gotta get home} (just gotta get home) |
Six more miles to Tucumcari |
Then I’ll never more roam |
(Tucumcari, Tucumcari, I just gotta get home) |
Four more miles to Tucumcari |
Not much further to go |
Got no time to waste or tarry |
She’ll be waitin' I know |
{Left right march along |
I’ve just gotta get home} (just gotta get home) |
Two more miles to Tucumcari |
Then I’ll never more roam |
(Tucumcari, Tucumcari, I just gotta get home) |
Here I am in Tucumcari |
Found my yellow-haired gal |
Just in time to see her marry |
With my very best pal |
{Left right march along |
Guess I better be gone} (I better be gone) |
A thousand miles from Tucumcari |
I’ll be rambling on |
(Tucumcari, Tucumcari, I’ll be rambling on) |
A hundred miles from Tucumcari |
Down in Santa Fe |
Fell in love with a girl named Mary |
Gee I’m happy today |
{No more marching now |
Found my honeycomb} (found my honeycomb) |
I’ve forgotten Tucumcari |
No more reason to roam |
(Tucumcari, Tucumcari) |
I’ve forgotten Tucumcari |
No more reason to roooaaaammmmm |
