In days of yore in western lore

A man returned from Civil War

His heart beat pure beneath his vest

His name was Best, Best of the West

 

But not alone did he come home

His new found bride was at his side

And with his boy, who did protest

They all came west, to live with Best

 

Yippee-ki-yi-yo

Yippee-ki-yi-a

This we mighn’t choose

Yippee-ki-yi-yo

Yippee-ki-yi-a

for the western pioneers

 

And off they rode, this family

And man and wife, this boy makes three

It’s through their deeds, this land was wrest

Hurray for Best, Best of the West
