Rawhide!

Posted in Lagniappe

Sing to the tune of Rawhide! Oh, wait, it IS Rawhide.  (If you don't know the tune to the great song Rawhide, ask your grandparents).  When you see YAH!, say it with passion like you are really getting those cattle movin'.  When you see SNAP!, you need to make the sound of a snapping whip.  Yes, I sat and listened to the song twelve times in a row, just for YOU, so enjoy!

YAH!.....SNAP!......YAH!.....SNAP!!!!!...

background someone sings...(rollin', rollin', rollin').

Keep movin', movin', movin'.

Though, they're disapprovin'.

Keep them doggies movin', RAWHIDE. (several 'moos' softly in the background)

Don't try to understand 'em, just rope, throw and brand 'em.

Soon we'll be living high and wide.

My heart's calculatin', my true love will be waitin', waiting at the end of my ride.

Move 'em on, head 'em up, head 'em up, move 'em on, move 'em on, head 'em up...RAWHIDE.   SNAP!

Cut 'em out, ride 'em in, ride 'em in, let 'em out, cut 'em out, ride 'em in.

RAWHIDE................(hold "hide" for about 12 seconds) while some one sings rollin' rollin' rollin', in the background. YAH!.....SNAP!......YAH!!!!

RAWHIDE.........(hold "hide" for about 12 seconds)...........YAH!....SNAP!!.....SNAP!!!!

(second verse)(at the end of the show)

(rollin', rollin', rollin')

Keep rollin', rollin',rollin'

Though the streams are swollen, Keep them doggies rollin', RAWHIDE!!!

Through 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.

Move 'em on, head 'em up, head 'em up, move 'em on, move 'em on, head 'em up, RAWHIDE. (SNAP!)

Cut 'em out, ride 'em in, ride 'em in, let 'em out, cut 'em out, ride 'em in.   RAWHIDE!

(rollin'rollin'rollin'rollin'rollin'rollin')

YAH!.....SNAP!.......YAH!......SNAP!......

(rollin'rollin'rollin'rollin'rollin'rollin')

YAH!....SNAP!.....SNAP!....

P.S.  Clint Eastwood plays Rowdy Yates and Eric Fleming plays Gil Favor, trail boss.

I've tagged you. You need to go to my blog for instructions. This is my first and last attempt at tagging. I never liked the idea but thought I'd better at least try it once! I picked you because of your western photo and entry. My son is obsessed with cowboys right now and desperately wants a bullwhip. Wouldn't you know they sell them at Vision Forum?? Gosh, I love that company!

I've always wondered what the words to that song really said! Thanks for the laugh! That was great! Hope your hubby feels better soon.
Love,
Marie :)
