Don Edwards - Longside the Santa Fe Trail lyrics

Say, pard have ye sighted a schooner A-hittin' the Santa Fe Trail? They may be here Monday or sooner With a water keg tied on the rail There's Daddy and Ma on the mule-seat And somewheres along by the way Is a tow-headed gal on a pinto She's a-janglin' for old Santa Fe Yoho! Just a-janglin' for old Santa Fe I saw her ride down the arroyos Way back in the Arkansas sand And a smile like an acre of sunflowers Had a little brown quirt in her hand She straddled her pinto so airy And rode like she carried the mail And her eyes near set fire to the prairie Longside of the Santa Fe Trail Yoho! Longside of the Santa Fe Trail I know a gal on the border That I'd ride to El Paso to sight I'm acquaint with the high-steppin' order And I've sometimes kissed some gals goodnight But they're all just ruffles and beadin' And afternoon tea by the pail Compared to the kind of stampedin' That we got on the Santa Fe Trail Yoho! That we got on the Santa Fe Trail I don't know her name and the prairie When it comes to one gal it's pretty wide And it's shorter from hell to hilary Than it is on this Santa Fe ride I'll make it to Cedars by sundown I'll camp somewhere down in a swale And I'll come on a gal and a pinto Longside of the Santa Fe Trail Yoho! Longside the Santa Fe Trail
