Traveling Boogie

Greeley said, go west young man We go west, north, east and south To spread the cause wherever we can The rallies, newspapers, word of mouth We had a tough run in Peoria, Illinois Trying to nudge, agitate and annoy Bloomington and Lincoln were not much better Being chased by gangs of men shouting "Come on, let's get her!" Kalamazoo, Jackson and Battle Creek It was harder and harder to turn the other cheek Felt almost holy in Toledo but were beaten in Dayton Over 2,000 miles on this ride with Satan Men needed women and rules they were willing to bend To enfranchise women they would gladly extend Women whose courage was beyond the pale To blaze the trail and to beat any male Pioneers who have no peers Women who can handle both men and steer They are stout-hearted, rowdy women of the west
