Rawhide!


As funny as it seems I was standing there washing up a few dishes. Weren't very many so I didn't see the need to turn on the dishwasher. So I'm standing there and I have no clue what came over me but there I stood singing Rawhide. Yep the lyrics are below. LOL I kind of laughed at myself and wondered if Dad was thinking about me. I remember when I was little and Dad would be walking around singing this song. I always smile when I think of this song because it reminds me yet again of my dad. I'll have to give him a call tomorrow morning.

The funnier thing about this was that my mom told us that dad would sing this song in his sleep. LOL She would be sound asleep and all of a sudden she said he yelled out RAWHIDE! LOL My poor mom. hehe



Rawhide
by Frankie Lane

Rollin', Rollin', Rollin',
Rollin', Rollin', Rollin',
Rollin', Rollin', Rollin',
Rollin', Rollin', Rollin',
Rawhide!
H'yah! H'yah!

Keep Rollin', Rollin', Rollin',
Though the streams are swollen,
Keep them dawgies rollin', Rawhide!
Through rain and wind and weather,
Hell bent for leather,
Wishing my girl was by my side,
All the things I'm missin'
Good fiddles, love and kissin',
Are waiting at the end of my ride.

Move 'em on, hit 'em up, hit 'em up, move 'em on
Move 'em on, hit 'em up, Rawhide
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in, ride 'em im,
let 'em out, cut 'im out, Ride on in, Rawhide!
H'yah! H'yah!

Keep movin', movin', movin',
though they're disapproving,
Keep them dawgies rollin', Rawhide!
Don't try to understand them,
Just rope and throw and brand 'em,
Soon we'll be living high and wide!
My heart's calculating,
My true love will be waiting,
Be waiting at the end of my ride.

Move 'em on, hit 'em up, hit 'em up, move 'em on
Move 'em on, hit 'em up, Rawhide
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in, ride 'em im,
let 'em out, cut 'im out, Ride on in, Rawhide!
H'yah! H'yah!
Rawhide!
H'yah! H'yah!
Rawhide!
