[Verse 1] Ye mighty sons of freedom Who round the mountains range Come all you gallant lumber boys And listen to my song On the banks of the sweet Saranac Where its limpid waters flow We'll range the wild woods over And once more a-lumbering go [Chorus] Once more a-lumbering go And we'll range the wild woods over And once more a-lumbering go [Verse 2] With the music of our axes We'll make the woods resound And many a tall and lofty pine Comes tumbling to the ground At night, around our good campfire We'll sing while cold winds blow And we'll range thе wild woods over And once more a-lumbеring go [Chorus] Once more a-lumbering go And we'll range the wild woods over And once more a-lumbering go [Verse 3] You can talk about your parties Your parties and your plays Well, pity us poor lumber boys Go jouncing on our sleighs But we ask no better pastime Than to hunt the buck and doe And we'll range the wild woods over And once more a-lumbering go [Chorus] Once more a-lumbering go And we'll range the wild woods over And once more a-lumbering go [Verse 4] When winter it is over And the icebound streams are free We'll drive our logs to Glens Falls And haste our girls to see With plenty to drink and plenty to eat Back to the world we'll go We'll range the wild woods over And once more a-lumbering go [Chorus] Once more a-lumbering go And we'll range the wild woods over And once more a-lumbering go
