Those Disney series always had great theme songs. Davy, Zorro, Andy Burnett, Swamp Fox, Elfego Baca. Heck, even Johnny Tremain. And Texas John Slaughter was no exception. This 1958 version by the Sandpipers, with Jimmy Carroll and Orchestra, is no exception. Sing along, you Buckaroos.

It's kind of funny how these old musical pieces talked about killing with such upbeat tunes.
...and to such impressionable little minds as mine, too.
As a small boy, I remember believing that people really died in westerns. How misguided is that?
I tried to sing along. but I scared the dog.
These days, if you don't do what your oughter you don't die, and that's what's wrong with society. And stay off my lawn!
