Comment by Robert E Lee Hyde on January 8, 2012 at 11:00am Recently, on Turner Classic Movies, I had the extreme pleasure of watching DON'T FENCE ME IN, made, I think in 1944. It starred Roy, Gale, Gabby, and the Sons of the Pioneers. It was in this film they introduced three of their best songs: TUMBLIN' TUMBLEWEEDS, DON'T FENCE ME IN and ALONG THE NAVAJO TRAIL. Gabby plays the part of Wildcat Kelley, about whom the song, Don't Fence Me In was composed. As a sidelight to this, it was Cole Porter who wrote this song, taken from a poem he bought from a Montana cowhand back in the 20's. It languished, unused, till the Sons of the Pioneers used it.

By now you've figured out that I'm a fan of old (and not so old) western movies. Here is my latest Silver Screen Cowgirl.
The title was inspired by the lyrics from "Along the Navajo Trail". (Click the link to hear Sons of the Pioneer sing this classic song.)
I love to lie and listen to the music
When the wind is strummin' a sagebrush guitar
When over yonder hill the moon is climbin'
It always finds me wishin' on a star
"Along the Navajo Trail" as written by Dick Charles, Edgar Eddie De Lange, Larry Markes
