Send That Wagon Home, John. Copyright, 1881, by J. W. Pepper. 
When the old boss dies and the harness gives out, Send that wagon home, John; That it's good and stout, I never had a doubt. Send that wagon home. Oh. the wheels am old, but good and tough, Send that wagon home, John; For your mother and I it am plenty good enough, Send that wagon home. 
Chorus. Send that wagon home. For it will hold us all; You used to ride about in it When you were young and small. Your mother sat beside me When we to the parson roamed; In that old cart I won her heart, John, send that wagon home. 
If you mean to help the old folks along, Send that wagon home, John; Your mother am old and she ain't strong, Send that wagon home. She can ride to church, and drive all 'round, Send that wagon home. John; On market days she can ride to town, Send that wagon home.-Chorus. 
It was clean and neat when it was new, Send that wagon home. John; The wheels were red, and the box was blue, Send that wagon home. The paint am gone, but it's yes as good, Send that wagon home, John; It's made of ash and old oak wood, Send that wagon home.-Chorus.
