That winter was a bad one,
for thirty days it snowed,
the minute school was over,
we packed the car and hit the road.
It teetered there, the worse for wear.
A dude ranch in decay, the bunk house leaked,
the stable reeked, I loved it right away.
Chorus:
How the west was fun, like a leap from a haystack.
How the west was fun, like a rodeo, like a flapjack!
I knew my heart had found it,
I knew my search was done.
Oh, oh, oh how the west was fun!
I took a ride on Suicide, that was my trusty steed.
Knocked down three tents, and electric fence.
And started a stampede.
