Lyrics
Chorus
Wagon train a-windin’ cross the prairie
Rollin’ onward through the storm and gale
T’ward the land of dreams trudge the old ox teams
Down the Oregon Trail
Through the night the Lord is in the saddle
Ridin’ herd beneath a moon so pale
Watchin’ o’er each 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
Performance
