Clouds so swift

Rain won't lift

Gate won't close

Railings froze

 Get your mind off wintertime

You ain't goin nowhere

Whoo-ee, ride me high

 Tomorrow's the day

 My bride's gonna come

Oh, Oh are we gonna fly

Down in the easy chair

I don't care

 How many letters they send

Morning came and morning went

Pack up your money

Pick up your tent

You ain't goin nowhere

Whoo-ee, ride me high

 Tomorrow's the day

 My bride's gonna come

Oh, Oh are we gonna fly

Down in the easy chair

Buy me a flute

 And a gun that shoots

Tailgates and substitutes

Strap yourself

 To a tree with roots

You ain't goin nowhere

Whoo-ee, ride me high

 Tomorrow's the day

 My bride's gonna come

Oh, Oh are we gonna fly

Down in the easy chair

 Now Genghis Kahn

 He could not keep

All his kings

 Supplied with sleep

 We'll climb that hill no matter how steep

When we get up to it

Whoo-ee, ride me high

 Tomorrow's the day

 My bride's gonna come

Oh, Oh are we gonna fly

Down in the easy chair
