I love the lines to that chorus - "Ridin' herd through the sun and the rain. Panning for gold on the cuff. We did everything in the books I guess and a lot that they never thought of. Oh Jim, Jim so you're riding on ahead. Well if that's how it's going to be. When you reach those streets paved with gold, Jim, stake a claim out for me." - Beautiful cowboy lyrics.
My Pappy's name was Jim. It's been nearly 8 years since I lost my best friend, and this 20 year old man still gets choked up every time I hear this...
Gotta love these boys lol, haha you know Way-Lon is doing his thing look at him, Ha willies higher than a kite, Johnnys jsut happy to be alive and Kris wants to beat the shit outa a city slicker lol
@MrGeltabs Funny you, why did you listen to this song? Have you and your family no black sheeps(but you are not one of them maybe)? Dont fuck with my heros, the Higwaymen are stars at the stage, and in heven if you belive. What they have done in their private lives is not our case. So just listen and enjoy,or else digg you down.
@tump10 "So just listen and enjoy,or else digg you down." What's that supposed to mean??? Looks like we got a case of an "youtube gangsta" Read my comment again you fucking idiot, I didn't say a negative thing about any of them!!! You just have trouble reading I guess... O well your obviously not very sharp, so we will let it at that "or else you digg"

Jim was a fictional character. Another Cowboy died too young. Great song. My name is Jim and I pray my friends sing this at my funeral.

Did Eddy Arnold write this song, or did he just make it famous?
