We chased lady luck till we finally struck - Bonanza 
With a gun and a rope and a hatful of hope 
We planted our family tree 
We got ahold of a potful of gold - Bonanza 
With a horse and a saddle and a rig full of cattle 
How rich can a fella be? 
On this land we put our brand 
Cartwright is the name 
Fortune smiled the day we filed 
The Ponderosa claim 
Here in the west we're livin' in the best - Bonanza 
If anyone fights any one of us 
He's gonna fight with me 
Hoss and Joe and Adam know 
Every rock and pine 
No one works, fights, or eats 
Like those boys of mine 
Here we stand in the middle of a grand - Bonanza 
With a gun and a rope and a hatful of hope 
We planted our family tree 
We got ahold of a potful of gold - Bonanza 
With a houseful of friends where the rainbow ends 
How rich can a fella be? 
On this land we put our brand 
Cartwright is the name 
Fortune smiled the day we filed 
The Ponderosa claim 
Here in the west we're livin' in the best - Bonanza 
With the friendliest, fightenist, lovingest band 
That ever set foot in the promised land 
And we're happier than them all 
That's why we call it - Bonanza - 
- Bonanza - 
- Bonanza -
