Hier das Poem:

WESTERN WAGONS

They went with axe and rifle, when the trail was still to blaze,
They went with wife and children, in the prairie-shooner days,
With banjo and with frying pan-Susanna, don´t you cry!
For I´m off to California to get rich out there or die!

We´ve broken land and cleared it, but we´re tired of where we are.
They say that wild Nebraska is a better place by far.
There´s gold is far Wyoming, there´s black earth in Ioway,
So pack up the kids and blankets, for we´re moving out today!

The cowards never started and the week died on the road,
And all across the continent the endless campfires glowed.
We´d taken land and settled-but a traveler passed by-
And we´re going West tomorrow-Lordy, never ask us why!

We´re going West tomorrow, where the promises can´t fail.
O`er the hills in legions, boys, and crowd the dusty trail!
We shall starve and freeze and suffer. We shall die, and tame the lands.
But we´re going West tomorrow, with our fortune in our hands.

VIELEN DANK!!!!!
