Wagons on the bums’ line got new paint
I don’t care
Springtime’s come
I don’t need that coat anymore
I go a-ridin’
I go a-ridin’ again
Don’t ask me mama
If I am happy that way

Anyone of my breed I shall surely smell
Anyone of my breed I shall surely smell

Rode with a jobless guy
Talked of the sweet home he’d have
You’d better go back boy
Maybe you live off your girl
I go a-ridin’
I go a-ridin’ again
Don’t ask me mama
If I am happy that way

Anyone of my breed I shall surely smell
Anyone of my breed I shall surely smell

McGovern’s my man, boy,
listen I’m telling you why
He likes Woody Guthrie
and that is what matters to me
I go a-ridin’
I go a-ridin’ again
Don’t ask me mama
If I am happy that way
