30 May 00 - 12:07 PM (#235868) Subject: The Deadwood Stage From: GUEST,Glen in Gloucestershire Hello Children Everywhere! Can anybody come up with the words for the Deadwood Stage. Last heard being played on the wireless whilst laying in bed on a Saturday Morning the programme was called "childrens favourites" way back in the 1960's - a amost wonderful song about a stage coach coming over the hill with the whip cracking away etc. I think it may have been sung by Doris Day. I know it's not a Folk song as such, but it is part of folk memory. I need them for a party piece that I'm planning. Many thanks for your help Glen. |

It goes on like that. A dreadful song. Yes, it's by Doris Day, in the movie "Calamity Jane." -- love, Harold |

Oh, the Deadwood Stage is a rollin' on over the plains With the curtains flappin' and the driver a slappin' the reins Beautiful sky A wonderful day Whip crack away, whip crack away, whip crack away A later verse has the "23 miles/ we've covered today".
