There's an old and rusty wagon that's left to rot away It's one my family rode in back in the good old days People loved their neighbors everybody was so free And riding in a brand new wagon was something to see
I can still see my Daddy sitting on the wagon seat Mom in her old sun bonnet she looked so nice and neat Kids were all in the wagon Grandma and Grandpa too Oh we used to go to church on Sunday when the wagon was new
Red wheels were on the wagon and the body it was green We were all so happy as riding in a limousine People used to gather round through all the mountain side Take a look at the brand new wagon and all take a ride
Well the automobiles are here now the wagon days are through Airplanes are a-humming neighbors are so few Everybody's in a hurry it's money that takes you through But we didn't need much money when the wagon was new.
