歌词
[Spoken Intro ]
[Deep male voice]
"In the year 1843, a great migration began, as thousands of brave souls left behind their homes and ventured westward on a journey fraught with peril and promise. They traveled along the Oregon Trail, a path that would test their resolve and their dreams. This is their story, told in song—a tribute to the pioneers who sought a new life in the wild, untamed lands of Oregon."

[Begin Song]
[Verse 1:]
We set out from Independence in the early light of dawn,
With dreams of fertile valleys and a life to build upon.
The wagons creaked and rumbled, wheels turning 'neath the sun,
On the trail to Oregon, where our journey had begun.
[Chorus:]
Oh, the Oregon Trail, where the rivers run so wide,
Through the plains and the mountains, we take it all in stride.
With the dust in our lungs and the stars in our eyes,
On the road to Oregon, where our destiny lies.
[Spoken Interlude:]
"In the Kansas prairie, under the endless sky,
We faced the trials that dared us, but never questioned why.
Through the Platte's swift current and the Rockies so grand,
We journeyed with courage, hand in hand."
[Verse 2:]
We crossed the Kansas prairie, where the buffalo did roam,
The endless sea of grasses, far away from home.
The Platte's swift current tested every soul,
But we pressed on with courage, with a never-ending goal.
[Chorus:]
Oh, the Oregon Trail, where the rivers run so wide,
Through the plains and the mountains, we take it all in stride.
With the dust in our lungs and the stars in our eyes,
On the road to Oregon, where our destiny lies.
[Spoken Bridge:]
"At Fort Laramie, amid the rugged terrain,
We found solace from the storm, relief from the pain.
Through Snake River's crossings, and the high mountain pass,
We faced the trials together, as one steadfast mass."
[Verse 3:]
We lost some friends to fever, and the biting winter's cold,
But their spirits walked beside us, their stories left untold.
The Columbia's waters led us to our promised land,
Where the verdant hills of Oregon rise proudly from the sand.
[Chorus:]
Oh, the Oregon Trail, where the rivers run so wide,
Through the plains and the mountains, we take it all in stride.
With the dust in our lungs and the stars in our eyes,
On the road to Oregon, where our destiny lies.
[Spoken Outro:]
"And so, the journey ended, but the legacy lives on.
Through hardship and hope, a new chapter was drawn.
In the land of Oregon, where hearts forever reside,
Their spirit remains, in the pioneers' pride."
[Chorus: Fade out ] Oh, the Oregon Trail, where the rivers run so wide,
Through the plains and the mountains, we take it all in stride.
With the dust in our lungs and the stars in our eyes,
On the road to Oregon, where our destiny lies.
