Diddily, diddily, dodo, The rooster’s called the morn.
Pack the quilt and kettle now,
Before the day is born.
The oxen pull, the wheels all groan,
Along the dusty loam.
Diddily, diddily, dodo, Off to find a new home.
Diddily, diddily, dodo, Sing while the wagon rolls.
Through the woods and prairie grass,
Toward our faithful goals.
The Lord will light the trail ahead,
Wherever we may roam.
Diddily, diddily, dodo, Off to find a new home. (ooh)
The children laugh beside the trail,
The old hound trots along.
Mama hums a gentle tune,
Papa joins the song.
The rivers wide and mountains tall Can never still our roam.
Diddily, diddily, dodo, Off to find a new home.
Diddily, diddily, dodo, Sing while the wagon rolls.
Through the woods and prairie grass,
Toward our faithful goals.
The Lord will light the trail ahead,
Wherever we may roam.
Diddily, diddily, dodo, Off to find a new home.
(yeah) We’ll raise a cabin by the creek,
Where tall green maples sway.
Plant our corn and tend our fields,
At the close of every day.
When evening stars shine overhead,
We’ll thank the Lord we’ve come.
Diddily, diddily, dodo, We’ve finally found our home. (hummmm)
