jimmy driftwood - git along little yearlings lyrics

the yanks took our corn, the rebs took our cotton
the bank took our land and the tax got our home
we yoked up our oxen and loaded our wagons
we drove up our yearlings, we started to roll

git along little yearlings we’re a+going to texas
don’t stray far away or you can’t hear the bell
git along little yearlings we’re a+going to texas
stay close to the wagons and all will be well

‘twas in alabama we lost the first wagon, we thanked the good lord we lost only one
in old mississippi we fought the jayhawkers, and in louisiana
wе buried our son
git along little yearlings wе’re a+going to texas
don’t stray far away or you can’t hear the bell
git along little yearlings we’re a+going to texas
stay close to the wagons and all will be well
there’s bears in the woods and there’s wolves and there’s indians
there’s quick sandy holes and there’s mountains of stone
last night a poor yearling strayed too far from camp
and this morning we found just a bundle of bones
git along little yearlings we’re a+going to texas
don’t stray far away or you can’t hear the bell
git along little yearlings we’re a+going to texas
stay close to the wagons and all will be well
hooray and hurrah give a big halleluiah the journey is ending
we’re very near there
give thanks to the oxen and pray to jehovah
we’ll soon be a+resting beneath the lone star
