Quick! Get inside! Girl you think I'm blind? I am eagle-eyed Boy, I'm watching you! You've got a job to do An oath that you swore to Quick! Get inside! Big news just arrived I'm just petrified Shut and lock the door! Why man why what for? We're in a civil war Our nation's course Is headed for war And you are sure To be the corps Communicator With California She can't run But you can ride And you'll provide What keeps us tied Nationwide Side by side Quick it's time to ride Ride and ride and ride Time to show your pride Lincoln's gone to war South versus the North West we're still unsure Tonight we ride And we'll provide What keeps us tied Nationwide Side by side Important news from Washington! The war has begun! The South strikes the first blow! The Southern Confederacy authorizes hostilities! Fire on Fort Sumter! The whole country aroused preparing for war! Quick it's time to ride Ride and ride and ride Keep them on our side Let's get in this fight You know it's only right There's history to write I have just been informed That California will remain Loyal to the U.S.A. You've done your job Hip hip hurrah There now remains hope For the U.S.A. Hip hip hooray We saved the day We will be praised For our ways Don't be fooled by sentimentals These are cruel continentals They fight for their land But they don't understand Their land was stolen from our hands Victory for Lincoln! California to remain in the Union! However trouble brews out west as the Paiute Nation goes to war with Mormon settlers Oh how I've/we've tried (it's so hard to say goodbye) To be her guide/to all abide But when's the time (every time I/you have to ride) To let her/them fly Into the sky Tonight we ride (it's so hard to say goodbye) And we've provide (we have proven our might) What keeps us tied (every time I/you have to ride) Nationwide (now they know that we were right) Side by side Off you go Light-Lark! To the next station with ya!
