Welcome to the ponderosa, my friends, for a living of songs and stories about the American west A land of legend, of romance, of friendship, of loyalty and courage A mother' love of remembrance, a true bonanza We taste the veil locked and we finally struck (bonanza!) To the gun and the rope, pull a-head, pull-a hop We're finally a family tree We got a hold of a path for a gold (bonanza!) To the horse and the saddle and we reach for the cattle Our riches got a fellow p On this land we've put our ranch: Upride is the name For to smile, the date we filed the ponderosa flame Here in the west we're living in the best (bonanza!) If anyone fights anyone of us, he's gotta fight with me! Oss 'n' Joe 'n' Adam know ev'ry rocky hight No one wits fights or heats like the voice o' mine Here we stand, in the middle of a grand bonanza! To the gun and the rope, pull-a-head, pull-a-hop We're finally a family tree We got a hold of a path for a gold (bonanzaaaa!) To the house for a friend, to the the rainbow edge Our riches got a fellow p On this land we've put our ranch: Upride is the name For to smile, the date we filed the ponderosa flame Here in the west we're living in the best (bonanza!) The friendliest quietness, loveliest bands that ever set boots on the promised land And we have you and them all That's why we call it bonanza! Bonanza! Bonanza!
