Movie Version=
There’s magic in the wind
And a brightness in the sky
There’s a promised land a-waitin’
And we’ll get there by and by
Westward roll the Wagons
Always westward roll
Westward roll the wagons
For Oregon’s our goal
America’s in motion
And their hopes are turnin’ west
Hey, let’s all get it goin’
For a new land’s always best
Westward roll the wagons
Westward roll them far
Westward roll the wagons
Toward the western star
Keep the bullwhips crackin’
And a smile on every face
Keep the teams all pullin’
And each wagon in its place
It's time to halt the wagons
Circle for the night
Tomorrow roll the wagons
When the sun is shining bright
Westward roll the Wagons
Always westward roll
Westward roll the wagons
For Oregon’s our goal
|-|Reprise=
Westward roll the Wagons
Always westward roll
Westward roll the wagons
For Oregon’s our goal
There’s magic in the wind
And a brightness in the sky
There’s a promised land a-waitin’
And we’ll get there by and by
Westward roll
Westward roll
Westward roll
|-|Rex Allen Version=
Call: Forward, Ho!
Chorus: Westward Roll, the Wagons
Always westward roll
Westward roll the wagons
For Oregon’s our goal
 
There’s magic in the wind
And a brightness in the sky
There’s a promised land a-waitin’
And we’ll get there by and by
Chorus
America’s in motion
And their hopes are turnin’ west
Hey, let’s all get it goin’
For a new land’s always best
Chorus
Keep the bullwhips crackin’
And a smile on every face
Keep the teams all pullin’
And each wagon in its place
Chorus
Where the ruts all deeper
Along the Oregon Trail
Ten thousand wagons
Bound to follow in our trail
Chorus
There’s magic in the wind
And a brightness in the sky
There’s a promised land a-waitin’
And we’ll get there by and by
Chorus
Westward roll
Westward roll
Westward roll
Roll
