Tadzuna wo hiite "Howdy"
Asagiri no naka
Machi wo sei ni shite
Wakare wo tsugete "Tally-ho"
Ima tabi ni deyou
mou zutto mukashi no osanai koro ni
Sagashidashite mou ichido dake
Sono basho wo mezashite mitai n' da

Mukaikaze wo nukete
(get over a river)
Kodoku no hate e
(get over a valley)
Jiyuu wo motome keep going that trip

Hey now, get the freedom western girl!!
Nimotsu seotte
Kawaita kouya
Yuruginaku tatsu
Saboten no you ni

Giddy up! Giddy up! Gotta find my way!
But now baby don't cry I'll be back again

Day and night kakenukeru basha
Toki ni tooku mata ate mo naku
But dareka no sei ni shite nigeru hou ga
Kitto nani yori motto tsurai yo na

Now I wear a hat and western boots 手綱を引いて 朝霧の中 街を背にして 別れを告げて 今旅に出よう もうずっと昔の幼い頃に 隠した古く色褪せた地図を 探し出してもう一度だけ その場所を目指してみたいんだ 向かい風を抜けて 孤独の果てへ 自由を求め keep going that trip 広がる世界へ Hey now,get the freedom western girl! 荷物背負って 乾いた荒野 揺るぎなく立つ サボテンの様に 花を咲かせて
heeehaaaaaa Giddy up! Giddy up! Gotta find my way! but now baby don't cry l'll be back again 手にしたコンパス記す方角 man I got 培った音楽 day and night 駆け抜ける馬車 時に遠くまた宛てもなく but誰かのせいにして逃げる方が きっと何よりもっと辛いよな so I stomp and clap! take another step!! Left and right left then I am all set!!! 出会った友と夢音に乗せ 描いた世界探し出すまで l've been in the rain and l've felt the pain l've seen it all but I am not afraid 「いつか届く」その思い乗せ 遥かな大地未知なる場所へ
so I wear a hat and western boots 心のままに 道を行くんだ 嵐が来ても 崖にあたっても 軽くかわしてこう Get the freedom western boy!! 寂しい時は 街の酒場で Bourbon片手に 地図を眺めて また夢を見よう
七つの海と空を越えて 道無き道も恐れず進め 西へ東へと追い求め ポケットいっぱいに詰めた夢 Now it is your time. Believe in yourself 肝心なのは次の一歩 高まる鼓動生む旋律が 君の唄うがむしゃらな歌
Hey now,let's stamp in western boots ドレス捲(まく)って もう気にせずに 息を揃えて 叫んで歌おう Yeah that's right!! Hey now,get the freedom boys&girls!! 目にした世界 胸に刻んで どこまでも続く 永久の旅路へ また歩き出そう
