If it's still available on YouTube, watch it; you'll like it as an adult, as much as a child would!
Yes. I re-remembered how great the old Disney films were too.
No, I haven't read the BAMBI book, but I have read all about it. OTOH...I have read the original Pinocchio and also have read all about that as well.
The changing of Bambi is probably a good thing; the changing of Pinocchio is NOT a "good thing"!
Okay, I'm a "purist"; however, the original versions of fairy Tales served a purpose; like AESOP'S FABLES, they teach a lesson. And by changing them, Disney wipes out most, if not ALL of the lessons.
I learned all of these songs as a kid in the early to late 1950s. I rarely missed an episode of Roy Rogers and Trigger.
When I got old enough I learned to shoot straight and accurate and have manners like Roy Rogers and Dale Evans taught.Too bad TV doesn’t teach that today.All I see on TV these days are fascists, queers and transvestites who are creating Sodom and Gomorrah. But they cannot get closer to me than my property line a half mile away, and the TV has an off switch.
My favorite song among those listed is Tumbling Tumbleweed.
Its even a litte Shinto in there.
“Don’t fence me in,” also a good one.
THey both are here with Roy Rogers and Trigger:

I know 5 of the 6. I guess I can’t go on the next cattle drive.
It’s a great song!
Ghost Riders
Cool Water
Old Paint
Thank you. I’ve never heard Hank’s version. As always, from the depths of his soul!
What happens when you play an old CW record backwards?
I know them all sometimes they play a few on Sirius” Willies Roadhouse Saturday night on Ranger Doug...
“Don’t Fence Me In” was written by Cole Porter.
Sure you can...just hum along to the one you don’t know.
What a nostalgia rush, this am.
Thanks, nickcarraway
You forgot the most famous one of all, Home on the Range.
I did not know Cole Porter wrote Don't Fence me In, but Roy Rogers sings it on the video link I posted up thread.
Cole Porter ,not a cowboy, a tortured man with huge talent but apparently a twisted sister, homosexual. He wrote a lot if good songs.
Why isn’t “You Broke My Heart So I Busted Your Jaw” listed?
What happens to a guy in a country song when it’s played backward? He gets a new job,he gets his girl back and he gets his truck back.
Out where an Injun's yer friend,
Where the vegetables are green, and you can pee right into the stream,
We're back from the shadows again
No list of songs like this would be complete without at least one from Canadian icon Ian Tyson — who stands apart from the faux “country” scene because he actually WAS a rancher in southern Alberta. He was also a rodeo rider early in his life before a serious injury ended his career and got him started in the music business.
And Johnny Cash’s “The Blizzard” is the most definitive “cowboy” song of all time.
I’m a bit of an old Duffer who likes to play at Open Mic nights on my ukulele, mostly to a younger crowd. One song that always gets a favorable reaction is “I’m an old Cowhand”. Yippy-yi-oh-ky-yay!
