We all looked so happy
When we climbed up on the bus
Bertha waved her hand from her seat and said
Good to have you come ride with us
I got sweet water and a loaf of bread
Should last us 'bout half a day
But you can't have more than a sip of wine
'Cause we have to stay up most of the way
ย
Laying on a beat old sofa
On the porch when nights were hot
Eating dents and mashed potatoes
From a big old iron pot
Never had much to worry about
'Cept at night under a bunch of stars
Now all the doors got fifteen locks
And the windows are covered up with bars
ย
Let's go down to the big ranch
The big ranch, the big ranch
Let's go down to the big ranch
The big ranch, the big ranch
Let's go down to the big ranch
The big ranch, the big ranch
Let's go down to the big ranch
The big ranch, the big ranch
ย
Read in the paper just the other day
That the city's now full of guns
Whatever happened to the simple days
When the children could just play and run?
I couldn't believe it on New Year's Day
Julia turned around to John and said
This year we're gonna get us a Colt.45
Keep it near us under the bed
Let's go down to the big ranch
The big ranch, the big ranch
ย
Let's go down to the big ranch
The big ranch, the big ranch
ย
Let's go down to the big ranch
The big ranch, the big ranch
Let's go down to the big ranch
The big ranch, the big ranch
