Promised land
The land of many rich and poor
Here came dreamers with Bible, fist and gun
Bound for land
The cross of ways their violence broke
Tell them forever
That's how the West was won
Side by side
They turned the savage prairie lands
Nothing stopped them
No wind, no rain, no sun
Side by side
They scoured each broad, barren land
All pulled together
That's how the West was won
And they sang of the day
When they would rest their boots
In a land where the still waters flow
Where the dreams of a man and wife
Could float down roots
And their love and seeds of love would grow
Dream by dream
They turned the big sands of this land
Forging freedom for every mother's son
Here it is
The beautiful land of the promised land
We won't forget them
That's how the West was won
The West was won
The West was won
I am bound for the promised land
I am bound for the promised land
For all who will come and go with me
I am bound for the promised land
It's a land of plenty that never fails
Where trees in autumn grow
Where rocks and hills and rows and fields
With milk and honey flow
And they sang of the day
When they would rest their boots
In a land where the still waters flow
Where the dreams of a man and wife
Could float down roots
And their love and seeds of love would grow
Would grow, would grow
Dream by dream
They turned the big sands of this land
Forging freedom for every mother's son
Here it is
The beautiful land of the promised land
We won't forget them
That's how the West was won
