Orvon Eugene Autry (September 29, 1907 -- October 2, 1998), better known as Gene Autry, was an American performer who gained fame as The Singing Cowboy on the radio, in movies and on television for more than three decades beginning in the 1930s. Autry was also owner of the Los Angeles/California Angels Major League Baseball team from 1961 to 1997, as well as a television station and several radio stations in southern California.

Although his signature song was "Back in the Saddle Again", Autry is best known today for his Christmas holiday songs, "Here Comes Santa Claus" (which he wrote), "Frosty the Snowman", and his biggest hit, "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer".

He is a member of both the Country Music and Nashville Songwriters halls of fame, and is the only celebrity to have five stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

@LES6723 Of course he probably did but that does not mean he knows where his father's soul isresting. Only God knows that. Also, God's word tell us that some of the ones that reach heaven will be a surprise to some and some that do not reach there will be a surprise to some of us. God grants salvation by His grace and NOT through our works.

@oldtexasmusic he probably knew his dad.

@LES6723 That was probably what he was doing but only God knows. Anyway, God tells us to judge not lest we be judged.

@oldtexasmusic take a guess, he probably knew what was right and wrong ,

[oldtexasmusic]

@LES6723 LOL!!! I suppose I should have admitted to it myself. Thanks..

@glipzik Yes, I have the Tex Ritter version and will post it soon. Wonder how he KNOWS that his father has gone down below?

[glipzik]

My mother has gone to heaven, my daddy has gone down below. Very strong lyrics.

Thanks for posting this one, Marcus. Would you happen to have the Tex Ritter version? I seem to remember it was very popular way back then.

@justmusicandme Glad you like one of the oldies. Gene was my hero when I was in the 5 to 10 year old ages.

Thanks for posting this great version. When I listen to Gene Autry's voice, I feel like I'm in Texas!  This is a great one, love it!
