Brings back memories from my youth ... it was quite a popular song when I was a kid. Of course, Lorne Greene & his show Bonanza was quite popular at the time as well.

I once thought so too. But it was said he got the name from all the rings he wore! Still, I read that he wanted to move to Texas, even long before he joined up with The Beatles! However, when they were touring in the early years. He got to go to Texas, after all!

This told a story about a man and his friend. It's a story of goodness and decency in a savage land. It's also a story of revenge and death, but while the townsfolk were singing, the one man who knew his measure shed a silent tear for the good, what little good it was, lost. It's a powerful story. Now that being said, there are a few raps songs like that and I like them. I'll listen to anything that tells a good story and makes you think.
