Lyrics[]
We're singing as we go, my sister and I
While our palomino ponies as they go cantering on their way
The sun is shining bright, and my sister and I
Are headed for the big gymkhana day
All the stock men from the hills around sing
(Yodel)
and we answer till the hills are ringing (Yodel)
As we head for the big gymkhana day
(Yodelling)
There's fun and laughter too, on gymkhana day
The stock men ride the outlaws as they cheer them on their way
There's ribbons for the ponies; that the judges think are best
But the golden palominos win the day
When they're riding home again, they're singing
(Yodel)
And we answer till the hills are ringing (Yodel)
As we head for the big gymkhana day
(Yodelling)
And when we're riding home again, they're singing
(Yodel)
And we answer till the hills are ringing (Yodel)
As we head for the big gymkhana day
(Yodelling)
