Lyrics of the theme song by Stan Jones & The Sons Of The Pioneers:

What makes a man to wander?

What makes a man to roam?

What makes a man leave bed and board

And turn his back on home?

Ride away, ride away, ride away

A man will search his heart and soul

Go searchin' way out there

His peace of mind he knows he'll find

But where, oh Lord, Lord where?

Ride away, ride away, ride away
