"Three Wheels On My Wagon" lyrics - BURT BACHARACH

Three wheels on my wagon
And I'm still rolling along -
The Cherokees are chasing me
Arrows fly
Right on by
But I'm singing a happy song!

I'm singing a higgity, haggity, hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
A mile up the road there's a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by!

[Spoken:]
"George, they're catching up to us!"
"Get back in the wagon woman!"

Two wheels on my wagon
And I'm still rolling along -
Them Cherokees are after me
Flaming spears
Burn my ears
But I'm singing a happy song!

I'm singing a higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
Half a mile up the road there's a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by!

[Spoken:]
"Duh, Paw? Are you sure this is the right road?"
"Will you hush up? You and your maps!"

One wheel on my wagon
And I'm still rolling along -
Them Cherokees after me
I'm all in flames
At the reins
But I'm singing a happy song!

I'm singing a higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
Right around that turn there's a hidden cave
And we can watch those Cherokees
Go galloping by!

[Spoken:]
"George? Should I get the bag of beads and trinkets?"
"Woman, I know what I'm doing!"

No wheels on my wagon
So I'm not rolling along -
The Cherokees captured me
They look mad
Things look bad
But I'm singing a happy song!

[Spoken:]
"C'mon all you Cherokees, sing along with me!"

Higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
Higgity, haggity hoggety, high
Pioneers, they never say die!
