Juan Rodgers Well I’ve been in the music business for years and there is room for every kind of music. There’s only two kinds, good and not good. All you have to do is just listen to what you like.
Mom was born 1929. She loved this song. Thank you
Texas Swing is the greatest and the Quebe Sisters make it real.

Across the alley from the Alamo
Lived a pinto pony and a Navajo
Who sang a sort of Indian "Hi-de-ho"
To the people passin' by
The pinto spent his time a-swishin' flies
And the Navajo watched the lazy skies
And very rarely did they ever rest their eyes
On the people passin' by
One day, they went a walkin' along the railroad track
They were swishin' not a-lookin' Toot! Toot!, they never came back
Oh, across the alley from the Alamo
When the summer sun decides to settle low
A fly sings an Indian "Hi-de-ho"
To the people passing by
Across the alley from the Alamo
Lived a pinto pony and a Navajo
Who used to bake frijoles in cornmeal dough
For the people passing by
They thought that they would make some easy bucks
By washin' their frijoles in Duz and Lux,
A pair of very conscientious clucks
To the people passin' by
Then they took this cheap vacation, their shoes were polished bright
No, they never heard the whistle, Toot! Toot! they're clear out of sight
Oh, across the alley from the Alamo
When the starlight beams its tender glow
The beams go to sleep and then there ain't no dough
For the people passin' by
One day, they went a walkin' along the railroad track
They were swishin' not a-lookin' Toot! Toot!, they never came back
Oh, across the alley from the Alamo
When the summer sun decides to settle low
A fly sings an Indian "Hi-de-ho"
To the people passin' by
Across the alley from the Alamo
I think our camera guy was drunk. Lol
That's the way the Country Music shall sound with out the sax and Rhode horns that sometimes play .Let your horns players play their own kind of Music
That’s not kuntry. That’s jazz Western swing. And Bob Wills himself had horns lol. It’s just that strings are prominent in Western swing.
Juan Rodgers Yes Bob Wills had a major Spanish influence. My Adobe Hacienda etc. Kuntry is George Jones. The Texas Playboys were jazz.
@@ronniebishop2496 it's a pittyful site,probably soon american singers Will sing songs about the Chapo instead of thier Country.Bye
Juan Rodgers Well I’ve been in the music business for years and there is room for every kind of music. There’s only two kinds, good and not good. All you have to do is just listen to what you like.
@@ronniebishop2496 yes that's what I meaning !!! Those influences tainted Country Music and are killing it, what else can we do?? It's so pittyful.
Great song/performance but video quality is cheesy.
What wrong with cheese. Would you rather go hungry?
The "introduction" (such as it was) took longer than the song. Sorry ... give me the Mills Brothers any day.
shut up !!!
Well pull them up bro! Lol
