The Oregon Trail |
I been a grubbin' on a little farm on the flat and windy plains |
I been a list’nin to the hungry cattle bawl |
I’m gonna pack my wife and kids |
I’m gonna hit that western road |
I’m gonna hit that Oregon Trail this comin' fall |
Chrous |
Now, my true love she gets ailin' |
When this dry old dust gets sailin' |
And she wishes for the days beyond recall |
If we work hard there’s a future |
In that north Pacific land |
I’m gonna hit that Oregon trail this comin' fall |
Well my land is dry and cracklin' |
And my chickens they’re a cacklin' |
'Cause this dirt and dust is getting' in their craw |
They been layin' flint rock eggs |
I got to bust 'em with a sledge |
I got to hit that Oregon trail this comin' fall |
Yes, my hogs and pigs are squealin' |
They’re a rockin' and a reelin' |
'Cause there ain’t no mud to waller in the draw |
I’m gonna grab them by their tails |
Take them down that western trail |
I’m gonna hit that Oregon trail this comin' fall |
Well, my good old horse in bony |
And he’s tired and lonsesome too |
You can count his ribs three quarters of a mile |
Throw my bedroll on his back |
Both the bay horse and the black |
I’m gonna hit that Oregon trail this comin' fall |
I’m gonna hit that Oregon Trail this comin' fall |
I’m gonna hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall |
Where that good rain falls a plenty |
Where the crops and orchards grow |
I’m gonna hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall |
