Now everybody wanna go downtown, but nobody wanna leave this country
Now everybody wanna see the world, but nobody wanna get up and go there
Now everybody wanna take that flight eh, but nobody wanna get out the house
Everybody wanna take that flight, but nobody wanna get off the couch and

(Go gogo) yeah tell me when you gonna
(Go gogo) yeah tell me when you gon'
(Gogogo) yeah tell me you gonna
(Go go go)now tell me when you gon' go

'Cause I don't know,if I stay here I might go crazy
So book my ticket, where this flight gon' take me?
Who knows,man this flight might save me
And if it's okay can I call you when I'm there?

(Go gogo) yeah tell me when you gon'
(Go gogo) you gotta get up and

Now everybody wanna light the candle, yeah everybody wanna be a star
Yeah, everybody want the lights and cameras,but nobody wanna work too hard
I made a wish on a two leaf clover,wanna get it gotta get up and go there
New beginning gonna make me over, pay your fare, see you when you get here

'Cause I don't know,if I stay here I might go crazy
So book my ticket, where this flight gon' take me?

And if it's okay can I call you when I'm there?

Go gogo, go gogo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Johnny & The Dee El'Dorados's song "Go! Go! Go!" highlight a theme of restlessness and a desire for change and exploration. The verses discuss the common longing to travel and experience new things, but also emphasize the inertia that often holds people back from taking action. The lines "Now everybody wanna see the world, but nobody wanna get up and go there" and "Everybody wanna take that flight, but nobody wanna get off the couch" suggest a sense of frustration with the lack of initiative and motivation in pursuing one's dreams and ambitions.


The chorus repeats the urging to "Go! Go! Go!" and questions when the listener will finally take that step towards their goals. The repetition of the phrase emphasizes the urgency of the situation and the need to break free from complacency. The lyrics express a fear of stagnation and a desire for growth and change, as reflected in the line "If I stay here I might go crazy."


The mention of wanting to "light the candle" and "be a star" touches on aspirations for success and fame, but also acknowledges that achieving these goals requires hard work and effort. The reference to making a wish on a "two leaf clover" speaks to the idea of luck and serendipity, but also implies that one must take action to bring those wishes to fruition. The invitation to "pay your fare, see you when you get here" suggests a willingness to take risks and embrace new opportunities despite the uncertainties that may lie ahead.


Overall, the song's lyrics encourage listeners to break free from their comfort zones, take risks, and pursue their dreams with determination and resolve. The repeated calls to "Go! Go! Go!" serve as a powerful reminder to seize the moment and not let fear or inertia hold them back from living a fulfilling and adventurous life.

The sun is sinking in the west
The cattle go down to the stream
The redwing settles in the nest
It's time for a cowboy to dream
Purple light in the canyons
That's where I long to be
With my three good companions
Just my rifle, pony and me

Gonna hang (gonna hang) my sombrero (my sombrero)
On the limb (on the limb) of a tree (of a tree)
Coming home (coming home) sweetheart darling (sweetheart darling)
Just my rifle, pony and me
Just my rifle, my pony and me
(Whippoorwill in the willow
Sings a sweet melody
Riding to Amarillo)
Just my rifle, pony and me

No more cows (no more cows) to be roping (to be roping)
No more strays will I see
Round the bend (round the bend) she'll be waiting (she'll be waiting)
For my rifle, pony and me
For my rifle, my pony and me

Lyrics - My rifle pony and me

Sun is sinking in the west
The cattle go down to the stream
The redwing settles in the nest
It's time for a cowboy to dream

Purple light in the canyon
that is where I long to be
With my three good companions
just my rifle pony and me

Gonna hang my sombrero
on the limb of a tree
Coming home sweet my darling
just my rifle pony and me

Whippoorwill in the willow
sings a sweet melody
Riding to Amarillo
just my rifle pony and me

No more cows to be ropin'
No more strays will I see
'round the bend she'll be waitin
For my rifle pony and me
For my rifle my pony and me

Lyrics - Cindy

I wish I was a apple hangin' in a tree
And everytime my sweetheart passed She'd take a bite off me
She told me that she loved me
She called me sugar plum
She threw her arms around me I thought my time had come.

Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
I'll marry you sometime.

I wish I had a needle As fine as I could sew
I'd sew her in my pocket And down the road I go
Cindy hugged and kissed me She wrung her hands and cried
Swore I was the prettiest thing
That ever lived or died.

Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
Get along home, Cindy-Cindy
I'll marry you sometime...

Dean Martin had such a wonderful voice! Love this song so much!

@visitorfromtheeaster

I have always said that Frank Sinatra's voice was not a big deal since there were some other great voices as good if not better than hi's... lets say Jack Jones, Andy Williams, Al Martino, Tony Benet, Steve Lawrence, Pat Boone, Perry Como and many others back then...
