First Tune - Oh! Susanna

It's the day of a great event on Red Horse Ranch. Idaho has driven the Buckbord to town and will soon return proudly bearing with him Rose Carter,

daughter of Sam Carter, owner of the Red Horse Ranch. Rose has been attending school in the east, and the whole outfit has laid off work today and are all gathered in front of the old ranch house prepared to welcome Rose home with their best brand of music. Listen, eat that music going there,

boys. We want to be all warmed up to give Rose some real singing when she gets here. Say, let's sing one we can all join in on. You all remember New River Train? Oh, well, Mr. Carter, come on out and sit on the veranda with us.

Well, of course I see your old, sweet, tough and noisy. Oh, we are. Tender put's been shining his boots since four o'clock this morning. I was trying to get the grease out of the inside of him.

Now, who in tarnation has been playing tricks on a tinder foot again? Well, if a man can stand in a joke and he's got no reason to want to learn to be a girl. Oh, I didn't mind as much, Mr. Carter.

Rose ought to be here by now, hadn't she? Yes, and not a bit of food ready. Has anyone seen Cookie around here? Not that I know of. That fella showed the laziest man I ever saw.

Yeah, I do know why are we ever capable. Well, you go on here singing, I'll see you by the party. I'm playing hard and I'm shooting a chicken on! So looks bad for cooking now!
