The Covered Wagon Rolled Right Along
Recorded by Bob Wills
Written by Hy Heath and Britt Wood
 
C
Oh the covered wagon rolled right along
                                    G7
While the pioneers gave out a happy song
        C
Sue and Pappy done the drivin'
      F
Mammy cooked and kept us thrivin'
        C             G7           C
And the covered wagon rolled right along


Oh we left Kentucky on the tenth of May
                                      G7
Pappy said I'll see that we eat every day
      C
Mammy you just grease the skillet
      F
If we need some food I'll kill it
        C             G7           C
And the covered wagon rolled right along


Oh we met an outlaw called the Durango Kid
                                              G7
And when Suzie spied him then she flipped her lid
         C
And when Suzie yelled out I got him
      F
Pappy pulled his gun and shot him
        C             G7           C
And the covered wagon rolled right along

       
Oh we stopped at a trading post to get supplies
                                          G7
And Mammy winked at pappy just to put him wise
      C
Mammy flirted with the trader
         F
When the trader thought he’d made her
        C             G7           C
And the covered wagon rolled right along


At playin’ poker Pappy won his fame
                                   G7
Once he got an Indian Chief into a game
      C
Pappy wound up with four deuces
      F
And a squaw with six papooses
        C             G7           C
And the covered wagon rolled right along
