Hittin The Trail

Here's another Wilf Carter (Montana Slim) song - it's a simple one, but perky and fun to perform. There's a short sound clip of it at www.saddlebagstheband.com under "Our Recordings", RANCH DRESSING, which includes the yodel. Thanks for the opportunity to share these songs. Alice Hanks, [email protected] (I'M) HITTIN" THE TRAIL Wilf Carter, (recorded ~ 1935) Key of () I'm () windin', () low. Get a- () do-gy. Get () Ho. Old () weary. The () snow. Get a- () do-gy It's () go. YODEL (()) I hear the lonely co - yo-tee howl-in' The prair-ie dogs are duckin' for their holes. Get along, get along, get along, get along, little do-gy. Get along, get along, get along, hi-de-ho. The flam-in' sun is settin' kind of peaceful. The breeze is rustlin' through the purple sage. Birds have ceased their singin', shadows fallin'. I would-n't change my job for any wage. YODEL The low-in' of the cattle in the valley. Smok-in' campfire at the break of dawn. I fan-cy I can smell the bacon fryin'. Get along, get along, get along, Roll C-long. Old cow-belly beans are appetizin' Af-ter weary hours along the trail Roll up in your blanket mighty peaceful Dream you're poundin' dogies down the trail. YODEL
