Burt Bacharach - Three Wheels on My Wagon lyrics

Three wheels on my wagon And I'm still rollin' along – The Cherokees are chasing me Arrows fly Right on by But I'm singing a happy song! Hmm, hmm, hmm, higgity, haggity, hoggety, high Pioneers, they never say die! A mile up the road, there's a hidden cave Where I watch those Cherokees Go gallopin' by! Spoken: "George, they're catching up to us!" "Get back in the wagon, woman!" Two wheels on my wagon And I'm still rollin' along – The Cherokees are after me Flaming spears Warms my ears But I'm singing a happy song! I'm a-singing higgity, haggity hoggety, high Pioneers, they never say die! Half a mile up the road, there's a hidden cave Where I watch those Cherokees Go a-gallopin' by! Spoken: "Father! Are you sure, this is the right road?" "Get back in the wagon! You and your maps!" One wheel on my wagon And I'm still rollin' along – The Cherokees are close to me I'm all in flames, at the reins But I'm singing a happy song! I'm a-singing higgity, haggity hoggety, high Pioneers, they never say die! On the very next turn, there's a hidden cave Where I watch those Cherokees Go a-gallopin' by! Spoken: "George? Should I get the bag of beads and trinkets?" "Get back in the wagon! I know what I'm doing!" No wheels on my wagon So I'm not rolling along – The Cherokees captured me They look mad Things looks bad But I'm singing a happy song! Spoken: "Hi, c'mon all you happy Cherokees and sing along with me!" Higgity, haggity hoggety, high Higgity, haggity hoggety, high Higgity, haggity hoggety, high Higgity, haggity hoggety, high Pioneers, they never say die!
