Lyrics for 'Wait for the Wagon'

Will you come with me my Phillis, dear,
To yon blue mountain free,
Where the blossoms smell the sweetest,
Come rove along with me.

It's ev’ry Sunday morning
When I am by your side,
We’ll jump into the Wagon,
And all take a ride.

Wait for the Wagon,
Wait for the Wagon,
Wait for the Wagon
And we’ll all take a ride.

Wait for the Wagon,
Wait for the Wagon,
Wait for the Wagon,
And we’ll all take a ride.
