Description

Though the streams are swollen,
Keep them dogies rollin'
Rawhide!
Rain and wind and weather,
Hell-bent for leather.
Wishin' my gal was by my side.
All the things I'm missin',
Good vittles, love, and kissin',
Are waiting at the end of my ride

This is the side board of an old wagon I found behind an antique shop.

LOVE this photo, Dennis! What a great find, and I love the way your captured the scene! The song is great, too! I do believe the Blues Brothers "borrowed" it, though -- and I can't remember the original artist. Great ol' Cowboy Tune, either way! #2814734
