[00:00:00] Gotta Pull Up Stakes (And Move On West) - Sheb Wooley

[00:00:03] A restless breed the early pioneer

[00:00:06] And when the settlements got too near

[00:00:08] He'd just pull up stakes and move on West

[00:00:16] When I first come to old Kaintuck

[00:00:18] There was plenty of room to breathe

[00:00:20] I could shoot out the window and bag a buck

[00:00:23] The bear and the beaver were all around

[00:00:25] Now they're cuttin' the timber

[00:00:26] And plowin' the ground

[00:00:28] They're closin' in around my nest

[00:00:30] Gotta pull up stakes and move on West

[00:00:38] I used to go for months on end

[00:00:40] With never a soul in sight

[00:00:43] But now the folks are pourin' in

[00:00:45] Why I found out just the other day

[00:00:47] I got a gol-darned neighbor 'bout a mile away

[00:00:50] They're closin' in around my nest

[00:00:52] Gotta pull up stakes and move on West

[00:00:56] Goodbye home where once the livin' was the best

[00:01:01] It's plain to see they're crowdin' me

[00:01:03] I gotta pull up stakes and move on West

[00:01:12] Out West they say the land is new

[00:01:14] As far as the eye can see

[00:01:16] There's plenty of game and timber too

[00:01:19] It's Injun country but I don't care

[00:01:21] For elbow room I'll risk my hair

[00:01:24] They're closin' in around my nest

[00:01:26] Gotta pull up stakes and move on West

[00:01:30] Goodbye home where once the livin' was the best

[00:01:35] It's plain to see they're crowdin' me

[00:01:37] I gotta pull up stakes and move on West
