i ve traveled the plains on mountain streams i d paddle over the rockies i would trail i d hark to the strains of cowboys in the saddle not very musical but male i ve roamed o er the range with the herd where seldom is heard an intelligent word git along little taxi you can keep the change i m ridin home to my kitchen range way out west on west end avenue oh i love to listen to the wagon wheels that bring the milk that your neighbor steals way out west on west end avenue keep all your mountains and your lone prairie so pretty give me the fountains that go wrong at radio city i would trade your famous deer and antelope for one tall beer and a cantaloupe way out west on west end avenue yippee yi yay git along little elevator climb once more to my lone shack on the 14th floor way out west on west end avenue when the sun s a risin over central park i pull the blinds and it s nice and dark way out west on west end avenue those 49ers who would stake a claim were hardy i ll join the diners and i ll claim a steak at sardi oh the wild herd gathers when the moon is full there s not much buffalo but lots of bull way out west on west end avenue yippee yi yay 1
