Public Cowboy No. 1

Deputy Sheriff Gene Autry:
Thanks a lot, folks. Speeches are not exactly my strong point so maybe I better sing. I'm dedicating this number to a man we should all be mighty grateful to. You old timers remember about 30 years ago this town was pretty wild. Gunfights took place in this very street that claimed the lives of my folks and some of yours. Then a young fella named Doniphon was elected sheriff. He didn't have much equipment - just his guns and his nerves. He still carries the scars of those battles, but he made this a placewhere decent folks could live and raise their families. And that's why I'd like to dedicate "Old Buckaroo" to Matt Doniphon.
