La casa de la pradera

Away, Away
Come away with me
Where the grass grows wild, where the winds blow free
Away, Away
Come away with me
And I'll make you a home in the meadow

Come, Come
There's a wondrous land
For the hopeful heart, for the willing hand
Come, Come
There's a wondrous land
Where I'll make you a home in the meadow

The stars, the stars
Oh how bright they'll shine
On a world that the Lord must have helped design
The stars, the stars
Oh how bright they'll shine
On that home we will build in the meadow
Come, Come
There's a wondrous land
For the hopeful heart, for the willing hand
Come. Come
There's a wondrous land
Where I'll make you a home in the meadow

La casa recomienda:

I got a mule and her name is Sal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

She’s a good old worker and a good old pal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

We’ve hauled some barges in our day

Filled with lumber, coal and hay

And we know every inch of the way

From Albany to Buffalo

Low bridge everybody down

Low bridge for we’re coming to the town

You’ll always know your neighbor

You’ll always know your pal

If you’ve ever navigated on the Erie Canal

We better get along on our way, old gal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

Cause you bet your life, I’d never part with Sal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

Git up there, mule, here comes a lock

We’ll make Rome about six o’clock

One more trip and back we’ll go

Right back home to Buffalo

Low bridge everybody down

Low bridge for we’re coming to the town

You’ll always know your neighbor

You’ll always know your pal

If you’ve ever navigated on the Erie Canal

Don’t have to call when I want my Sal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

She trots from her stall like a good old gal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

I eat my meals with Sal each day

I eat beef and she eats hay

And she ain’t so slow if you want to know

She put the ‘buff’ in Buffalo
