Cowboys Wow

Late sixties cowboy films Bonanza, Rawhide And Cheyenne – I loved these series. Their theme songs come to mind ‘Wishing ‘My gal was by my side’( Rawhide,) Waiting at the end of my ride ‘Keep movin,’ movin’, movin, Just rope em, throw and brand em Soon we’ll be living high and wide Rawhide’. And then there was Cheyenne , ‘Cheyenne, Cheyenne, where will You be campin’ tonight, Lonely man, Cheyenne, will Your heart stay free and light, The wind that blows, that comes and goes, Has been your only home, But will the wind one day cease, And you’ll no longer roam.’ And finally my absolute favorite Bonanza (Little Joe) we were all in love With him, it was all we discussed at School break time the next day If only it was on every night What can I say, The song was almost on The hit parade. In my mind, it will never fade! Remember their home the Ponderosa Ranch, ‘the stars at night The morning light Water in the branch, We ride along, Four men strong ‘ These three cowboy series bring back Memories galore of my mid to late teenage Years, happy moments, and sad seems Like only a page Ago. I have just missed Line Gauthier’s contest, But still posting this poem. Some words and lyrics From all three series.
