The promised land, the promised land, the promised land
The promised land, the land of plenty rich with gold
Here came dreamers with Bible, fist and gun
Bound for land, across the plains their wagons rolled
Hell bent for leather - that's how the West was won
Side by side they tamed the savage prairie land
Nothing stopped them - nor wind, nor rain, nor sun
Side by side these pioneers from ev'ry land
All pulled together - that's how the West was won
And they sang of the day when they would rest their boots
In a land where the still waters flow
Where the dreams of a man and wife could put down roots
And their love and the seeds of love would grow, and grow, and grow
Dream by dream they built a nation on this land
Forged in freedom for ev'ry mother's son
Here it is, the beautiful the promised land
We won't forget them and how the West was won !
