Gotta Pull Up Stakes (And Move On West) - Sheb Wooley[00:00:00]
A restless breed the early pioneer[00:00:03]
And when the settlements got too near[00:00:06]
He'd just pull up stakes and move on West[00:00:08]
When I first come to old Kaintuck[00:00:16]
There was plenty of room to breathe[00:00:18]
I could shoot out the window and bag a buck[00:00:20]
The bear and the beaver were all around[00:00:23]
Now they're cuttin' the timber[00:00:25]
And plowin' the ground[00:00:26]
They're closin' in around my nest[00:00:28]
Gotta pull up stakes and move on West[00:00:30]
I used to go for months on end[00:00:38]
With never a soul in sight[00:00:40]
But now the folks are pourin' in[00:00:43]
Why I found out just the other day[00:00:45]
I got a gol-darned neighbor 'bout a mile away[00:00:47]
They're closin' in around my nest[00:00:50]
Gotta pull up stakes and move on West[00:00:52]
Goodbye home where once the livin' was the best[00:00:56]
It's plain to see they're crowdin' me[00:01:01]
I gotta pull up stakes and move on West[00:01:03]
Out West they say the land is new[00:01:12]
As far as the eye can see[00:01:14]
There's plenty of game and timber too[00:01:16]
It's Injun country but I don't care[00:01:19]
For elbow room I'll risk my hair[00:01:21]
They're closin' in around my nest[00:01:24]
Gotta pull up stakes and move on West[00:01:26]
Goodbye home where once the livin' was the best[00:01:30]
It's plain to see they're crowdin' me[00:01:35]
I gotta pull up stakes and move on West[00:01:37]
