THE WELLS FARGO WAGON

Oho, the Wells Fargo Wagon is a-comin' down the street
Oh please let it be for me
Oho, the Wells Fargo Wagon is a-comin' down the street
I wish, I wish I knew what it could be 

I got a box of maple sugar on my birthday 
In March I got a gray mackinaw 
And once I got some grapefruit from Tampa 
Montgomery Ward sent me a bathtub and a crosscut saw 

(ALL)
Oho, the Wells Fargo Wagon is a-comin' now
Is it a prepaid surprise or C.O.D.? 
It could be curtains 
Or dishes 
Or a double boiler 
Or it could be 

(ALL)
Yes it could be, yes you're right, it surely could be 
Somethin' special 

(ALL)
Somethin' very, very special now 
Just for me 

(ALL)
Oho, the Wells Fargo Wagon is a-comin' down the street
Oh don't let him pass my door
Oho, the Wells Fargo Wagon is a-comin'
I wish I knew what he was comin' for 

I got some salmon from Seattle last September 
And I expect a new rockin' chair 
I hope I get my raisins from Fresno

The D.A.R. have sent a cannon for the courthouse square

(ALL)
Oho, you Wells Fargo Wagon, keep a comin'
Oho, you Wells Fargo Wagon, keep a comin'
Oho, you Wells Fargo Wagon, 
don't you dare to make a stop until you stop for me
