Western Bound

Well saddle my pony gonna go for a ride
Where the mountains reach up 10,000 feet in the sky
Gonna follow the trail of the old buffalo
Across the high deserts and the valleys below
To a land where the milk and golden honey flows
Baby I'm western bound

Under the stars of an Idaho sky
Gonna drift off to sleep as the coyotes cry
And dream of a bungalow up on a cliffside
Overlooking that great Pacific ocean wide
A barn in the back for my horse to reside
Baby I'm western bound

Out on the coast, the water's blue as can be
Gonna settle my dogie in Carmel-by-the-Sea
With a young Spanish maiden, raven hair eyes of brown
Baby I'm western bound

Yodel ay ee ay ee
Yodel ay ee ay ee
Yodel ay ee oh ay oh tee

(I'm all through with those cold winters, California here I come)

Where the redwoods stretch up into the heavens above
I'll go strolling so sweetly with the girl that I love
Down by the riverbanks lined in gold
We'll bathe in those mountain spring waters clear and cold
To a beautiful serenade from the mourning dove
Baby I'm western bound

All of the troubles I've been carrying around
In these old dusty saddle bags, I'm throwing 'em down
Where the dreams grow aplenty in that new fertile ground
Baby I'm western bound

Yodel ay ee ay ee
Yodel ay ee ay ee
Yodel ay ee oh ay oh tee
