... a song that Roy Rogers recorded with Andy Parker and the Plainsmen. I've got most of the words but I need the "official" lyrics. Any old-timers out there remember this one well enough to help me out?

Of course a great solo by Joaquin, silly!!

I've got the recording. The only lyric in question for me is line 6 of the first verse, after the line "they've been patched a thousand times," and preceding the line "still they're torn each time they're worn."

The song was written by Jack Owens, who wrote the Hawaiian classic, "The Hukilau Song."

Herb:
With a title like that, are we to assume you have on your Cornell Hurd A&R hat today?
