My transcription of the lyrics is below, but I can't understand a couple of words, which I've marked with '?'. I suspect they may be American slang (I'm Australian).

There's a half moon beamin',
Half asleep and dreamin',
So high above,
And I'm halfway to Montana,
Halfway to Montana,
Halfway to the one I love.

Got a ways to travel,
Pinto hit that gravel,
No time to roam,
I'm just halfway to Montana,
Halfway to Montana,
Halfway to my gal back home.

I'm a-wearin' a brand new ??,
Got a brand new shirt on my back,
And I'll beat that old ???,
Comin' down that mountain track.
