Opening The West |
And the shining Rocky Mountains looked down on the people coming |
Strong and sturdy freedom lovin' settlers cowboys pioneers |
Now no foreign crown would rule them |
Now a nation strong was standing even bigger was it growing |
Added Iowa, Wisconsin then broke through the shining mountains |
Staked a claim on California |
Panned the gold out of its rivers irrigated desert valleys |
Oregon, Minnesota, Kansas now were added to the total |
Making 34 to number of the States now in the Union |
And the years 1860 to 65 the history books’re full of it |
The sadness the heartbreak and the songs of that period |
Tell us of a sadness and of a heartbreak when the nation was torn asunder |
