The Deadwood Stage (Whip Crack Away) (From "Calamity Jane") - Doris Day
Oh the Deadwood stage is
A rollin' on over the plains
With the curtains flappin'
And the driver slappin' the reins
A beautiful sky a wonderful day
Whip crack away whip crack away
Whip crack away
Oh the Deadwood stage is
A headin' on over the hills
Where the Injun arrows
Are thicker than porcupine quills
Dangerous land no time to delay
So whip crack away
Whip crack away whip crack away
We're headin' straight for town
Loaded down
With a fancy cargo
Care of Wells and Fargo Illinois boy
Oh the Deadwood stage is
A comin' on over the crest
Like a homin' pigeon
That's a hankerin' after it's nest
Twenty three miles we've covered today
So whip crack away
Whip crack away whip crack away
The wheels go turnin' round
Homeward bound
Can't you hear 'em hummin'
Happy times are comin' for to stay hey
We'll be home tonight by
The light of the silvery moon
And my heart's a thumpin' like a mandolin
A plunkin' a tune
When I get home I'm fixin' to stay
So whip crack away
Whip crack away whip crack away
Whip crack away
Whip crack away whip crack away
Introducin' Henry Miller
Just as busy as a fizzy sasparilla
Ain't a showman and he's smarter
Operates the Golden Garter
Where the cream of Deadwood city come to dine
And I'm glad to say he's a very good friend of mine
Hi Joe say where d'you get them fancy clothes
I know off some fella's laundry line
Hi beau aren't you the Prairie Rose
Smellin' like a watermelon vine
Here's the man the sheriff watches
On his gun there's more
Than twenty seven notches
On the draw there's no one faster
And you're flirtin' with
