Toto.
A hat and a bright little feather,
A gun on my shoulder - so;
Dagger in sheathe of leather,
A pistol for a foe.
Chorus.
A hat and a bright little feather,
A gun on her shoulder - so;
Dagger in sheathe of leather,
A pistol for a foe.
Caramel.
A daring mountain ranger
From rock to rock you'll bound;

Jelly. Jacquier.
In the ranks of danger, In the foremost ranks of danger,
Toto will be found. Our Toto will be found.

Jacquier.

A daring mountain ranger
From rock to rock you'll bound;
In the ranks of danger
Our Toto will be found
Toto & Jelly.
Then away to the mountain brow,
With rifle and six-shooter;
It is the life of lives, I vow,
The life of a brave freebooter!
Chorus.
Then away to the mountain brow,
With rifle and six-shooter;
It is the life of lives I vow,
The Brigands life for me!
Caramel & Jacquier.
Away, away!
Chorus.
Away, away!
Toto & Jelly.
Away, away!
Chorus.
A hat and a bright little feather,
A gun on her shoulder - so;
Dagger in sheathe of leather,
And a pistol for a foe.
Jelly.
Away to the mountain brow.
Toto.
Away to the mountain brow,
Away, away now, away
All.
Away!
