Ballad Of The War Wagon
Composer(s): Dimitri Tiomkin - Ned Washington
Performer(s): Ed Ames



Look at those horses! What are they draggin'?
Look at those horses! What are they draggin'
Heavily guarded, what is that wagon?

Most men are fightin' for a wagon full of gold
Scratchin' and fightin' for a wagon full of gold
My piece of land, my cattle brand
A place to rest my head
A feelin' of a woman's love are all you really need for livin'

Look at those horses! What are they draggin'?

Three years in prison made me dream a lot of dreams
Sometimes the dream is not as easy as it seems
But wrong or right I have to fight
'Cause when the truth is told
All men are fightin' for a wagon full of gold

Look at those horses! What are they draggin'
Heavily guarded, what is that wagon?

Look at those horses! What are they draggin'
Heavily guarded, what is that wagon?

Most men are fightin' for a wagon full of gold
Scratchin' and fightin' for a wagon full of gold
My piece of land, my cattle brand
A place to rest my head
A feelin' of a woman's love are all you really need for livin'

Look at those horses! What are they draggin'?

Three years in prison made me dream a lot of dreams
Sometimes the dream is not as easy as it seems
But wrong or right I have to fight
'Cause when the truth is told
All men are fightin' for a 
Strugglin' for a
Searchin' for a
Strivin' for a
Wagon full of gold!
Full of gold!
