Before the train, before the road
A dream of wheels someday to roll
Songs unsung and tales untold
Before the train, before the road
Before the steamboat paddle wheel
How did the mighty river feel?
A steady flow and an even keel
Before the steamboat paddle wheel
Before, along before
It ain't before no more
Before, along before
It ain't before no more
It ain't before
Before the wagons headed west
Before the gold and all the rest
The sun upon the mountain's crest
Before the wagons headed west
Before the mighty buffalo
The wind and water, the rain and snow
A silence none of us could know
Before the mighty buffalo
Before, along before
It ain't before no more
Before, along before
It ain't before no more
It ain't before
Before I meet my journey's end
I'll try to be an honest friend
I'll see you all up around the bend
Before I meet my journey's end
Before, along before
It ain't before no more
Before, along before
It ain't before no more
It ain't before
