Three wheels on my wagon
And I'm still rolling along –
The Cherokees are chasing me
Arrows fly
Right on by
But I'm singing a happy song!
I'm singing a higgity, haggity, hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
A mile up the road there's a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by!
Spoken:
"George, they're catching up to us!"
"Get back in the wagon woman!"
Two wheels on my wagon
And I'm still rolling along –
Them Cherokees are after me
Flaming spears
Burn my ears
But I'm singing a happy song!
I'm singing a higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
Half a mile up the road there's a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by!
And I'm still rolling along –
The Cherokees are chasing me
Arrows fly
Right on by
But I'm singing a happy song!
I'm singing a higgity, haggity, hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
A mile up the road there's a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by!
Spoken:
"George, they're catching up to us!"
"Get back in the wagon woman!"
Two wheels on my wagon
And I'm still rolling along –
Them Cherokees are after me
Flaming spears
Burn my ears
But I'm singing a happy song!
I'm singing a higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
Half a mile up the road there's a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by!
