The Sons Of The Pioneers


I saw the light

I know that it's right 
(and have you heard) 
I'm gonna Ride (cowboy camp meeting) 
Ride (cowboy camp meeting)

Ride on the golden range 
(up in the sky) 
way up in the sky 
(up in the sky) 
way up in the sky
(yes I'll have a cowboy camp meeting) 
Hallelujah brother yes sir ree yes sir ree
way up in the sky

Well the Brother Buffalo Bill and Sister Lou's

Like me and you. 
And Old Kit Carson he will too 
way up in the sky 
They're gonna Ride (cowboy camp meeting)

Gather 'round me children, get your bibles out 
Get your prayer bones ready, gonna tell ya about 
How to love one another til you almost shout 
Start the livin' by the book of life

Tell me about the Book of Life... 

There's a Matthew, A Timothy, A Jude and A John 
And a Zephaniah, A Zachariah and A Philemon 
They all got the word, but you must read on 
'bout Goliath and the Book of Life, 
Yes siree...hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Little David slew that giant so tall 
prove right less might for big and small
