Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne
Lyrics
Far, far away, where sunbeams play
On desert’s burning sands
To his dismay he met one day
A maiden sweet and so petite
He said, “You’ll make my life complete”
Chorus
In a covered wagon with you
We will bid this old world adieu
When the evening shadows are creeping
And the lovelight in your eyes is peeping, sneaking peeking
In our little rolling home
Just you and me alone
And we’ll pray just me and you
There’ll be three instead of two
In a covered wagon with you
Sung here by Fred Feild:
