This Tex Ritter Video Clip came from the Tex Ritter film titled "Riders of the Frontier" Tex plays straight man for Mantan Moreland, and afterwards launches into 'The Boll Weevil Song' with Moreland himself singing three verses solo and the chorus in duet with Tex Ritter!
I saw this in my class today and we all laughed. It was funny but we liked it. X)

I remember days long past the mom would sing every Tex Ritter song there was, but this was her favorite! Thanks for the memories!

My US History professor sang this to us yesterday in class. It was great; he's this small, sweet old man.

Song's by Tex Ritter bring back great memories of my childhood in Oklahoma. He was one of my favorite movie cowboy's.

@StoicKitty I think my Dad had that album. It Was great. I liked Ritter's version on that album better than the one here, though this one's good too. It had some marvelous songs, and his deep, rolling baritone was perfect for them

I Listened To The Texas Ridder Sing The Boll Weevil Song On An LP When He Was Old. Great To See That A Video Version Exists.

@HiWayLady49 Yeah, my dad says it's kinda funny how we could put a man on the moon but we couldn't stop a little bug.
