I've been a grubbin' on a little farm on the flat and windy plains
|D |A |D
I've been listening to hungry cattle bawl, I'm gonna pack my wife and kids
|G |A |D
I'm gonna hit that western road, I'm gonna hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall
(chorus:)
|G |D
I'm gonna hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall,
|G |A
hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall
|D |G
Where the good rain falls a plenty and the crops and orchards grow
|A |D
I'm gonna hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall
|D |G
Well, my land is dry and cracklin' and my chickens they're a cacklin'
|D |A |D
cause the dirt and dust is gettin in their crawl,they been layin flint rock eggs
|G |A |D
I had to bust em with a sledge, I'm gonna hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall
(chorus)
|D |G
Well, my hogs and pigs are squealin' They're a rockin and a reelin'
|D |A |D
Cause there ain't no water to water in the draw, I'm gonna grab one by his tail
|G |A |D
Im gonna take that western trail And we'll hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall
|D |G
Now, my good old horse is boney, Yes he's dry and hungry too
|D |A |D
You can see his ribs three-quarters of a mile, Throw my kids up on his back
|G |A |D
and the day horse right on track And we'll hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall
(chorus)
|D |G
Well my wife gets sort of ailin, When that mean old dust is sailin
|D |A |D
And she wishes for the days beyond recall, If the work there's in the future
|G |A |D
in that north Pacific land, So we'll hit that Oregon Trail this coming fall
(chorus)
