There's an old prairie schooner
Wendin' its way
Over the Santa Fe trail
With its captain and crew
Pushin' on, goin' through
Over the Santa Fe trail
Pioneering fourty-niners, sailed away
In mighty liners
Over the sagebrush seed
Sailed away to far off land
Through the rollin', burnin' sand
Out on the lone prairie
Anchors away
At each break of day
Ole Captain Kidd
Never did it that way
There's an old prairie schooner
Wendin' its way
Over the Santa Fe trail
Over the Santa Fe trail
