From the 1953 film Calamity Jane.

[Verse 1]
E
Oh the Deadwood stage is rolling on over the plains
B
With the curtains flapping and the driver slapping the reins
E
Beautiful sky a wonderful day
B E
Whip crack away whip crack away whip crack away

[Verse 2]
E
Oh the Deadwood stage is heading on over the hills
B
Where the Injun arrows are thicker than porcupine quills
E
Dangerous land no time to delay
B E
So whip crack away whip crack away whip crack away

[Bridge A1]
A E B E
We're heading straight for town loaded down with a fancy cargo
A E B E
Care of Wells and Fargo Illinois - boy

[Verse 3]
E
Oh the Deadwood stage is coming on over the crest
B
Like a homing pigeon that's hankering after its nest
E
Twenty three miles we've covered today
B E
So whip crack away whip crack away whip crack away

[Bridge A2]
A E B E
The wheels go turning round homeward bound can't you hear them humming
A E B E
Happy times are coming for to stay - hey

[Verse 4]
E
We'll be home tonight by the light of the silvery moon
B
And our hearts are thumping like a mandolin plunking a tune
E
When I get home I'm fixing to stay
B E
So whip crack away whip crack away whip crack away
B B E
Whip crack away whip crack away whip crack away

[Instrumental- Key of A]

[Verse 5]
C
Introducin' Henry Miller
C G G7
Just as busy as a fizzy sarsparilla
