Gather 'round now everybody
Listen closely and you will hear
Stories of hard work and celebration,
The voice of the pioneer.

Listen to the mamas with their babies
Or the echoes of a soldiers plight.
These are the stories of the Buffalo Commons,
These are the tales of the Golden Plains.

There was hard times and there was laughter,
Bountiful harvests just like gold.
The silver ribbons of the railroad
The endless sunsets of days untold.

Build a sod house, on the open prairie
On the land where live the great chiefs.
These are the stories of the Buffalo Commons,
These are the tales of the Golden Plains.

Sing the songs and tell the stories,
Let our children know what went before.
These are the stories of the Buffalo Commons.
These are the tales of the Golden Plains.
