 D'ya-ya-yo, get along with the dookies. This is your misfortune and all my love. D'ya-ya-yo, get along with the dookies. You know that Wyoming will be your new home. Life on the Red Horse Ranch. The boys at the Red Horse Ranch are still talking about what a great time they had at the barn dance. One subject of conversation is about a stranger but the name of Steve Bradford, who has just come into the country and bought the Bardee Ranch, which adjoins the Red Horse Ranch. And today, after a hard day's work, the boys are enjoying their favorite pastime, singing. I'm hungry, I'll drink when I'm dry. And when I get thirsty, I'll lay down and cry. It's beef steak when I'm hungry, and whiskey when I'm dry. It's greenbacks when I'm hard up and heaven when I die. Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey, I cry. If I don't get rye whiskey, I surely will die. Keep a hold of that fiddle. We ain't through singing yet. Well, if you don't mind, Bob, I think I'll hit the bunk early. Oh, it ain't near dark yet. We don't have to get up till 4.30 in the morning. 4.30. Do we brand calves again tomorrow? That's what Alabama said. Wrestling with them snorting yearlings ain't so easy, is it? No, not for a male-ordered cowboy like Tenderfoot. Lay off at Tenderfoot, won't you, boys? You know, he's worked right along with every man in this outfit today. Give him a chance, will you? That's all right, Tex. I'm gonna learn this business someday. Yeah, I figure you'd better if you get anywhere with Miss Rose. She likes her men strong and tough, like that Steve Bradford that was shining up to her at the dance for the night. Oh, yeah, the stranger that bought the bar, he ran. Yeah, he ain't no more a cowman than Miss Rose herself. One look at him and show he's never had her open his hand in his life. I noticed that, too, Idaho. He must count on taking a throw at ranching. I hear he's bought some other land around here, too. Oh. Well, what's on your mind, Cookie? Here's the bar. I think you better do something about Miss Alabama. About Alabama? Anything to matter with him, Cookie? It doesn't matter what I'm trying to make out. She always powerful worried about him. I'm telling you. I saw Alabama down to Corral a minute ago. Yes, and he's still there, except for a trip to the chuckhouse with some stale biscuits. I know what you mean now. He's down there in the corral feeding them biscuits to that ron hold right now. Say, if that ron's eating any biscuits you made, Cookie, he'll be dead by morning. Go along with you, boy. I was telling you there's something wrong with Alabama. He's sitting down there all alone talking to that bronco hold, and then he put the saddle on it, and tighten up the cinches, and then what do we do? But take the saddle right off and that off again without not trying to ride it. That ain't the first time you do it, either. I don't think there's anything to worry about. Alabama thinks he's making friends with Red. But you just wait till he tries to straddle that boy. Yeah, just the same. I've got to see this. I tell you, bring your guitar along, Tex. All right. Let's slip up on him and joke him a little. Where is he? You see, there he is. He's talking his head off to that raise. Don't look right at me. Come on. Don't let him know you're coming. By golly, he has got that ron eating right out of his hand. Come on, baby. Just a little closer. Alabama won't hurt you none. Come on, boy. Easy now. All right, boys. Let's go. All that strawberry ron. Hey, hey, what in carnations do you fellas come from? Now you went and scared Red from the dead. It's your time on that horse. I'll bet the best rider in the West couldn't tame him. You come down here with me in a couple of days and I'll show you what I'm talking about. Tex will be writing some new words to that strawberry ron song. And I'll bet it'll go something like this, too. And the fool and I'll say this pony could step Still satin' tighter and in a rep When my stirrup's high loose and also my hat I started pulling leather as blind as a bat He mechs one more jump, he was headed up high Leave me satin' on air way up in the sky Guess I turned over twice, came back to the earth I started in cussin' the day of his birth Oh, that strawberry ron, oh He went toward the east, came down toward the west To stay in his middle, I was doing my best Oh, that strawberry ron Tex forgot to mention the lennon mutton splints, Albert. Anyhow, you boys have got something to look forward to. I'm going to straddle Red and I'm going to ride him. But come on, there's no use of me trying to do anything more with him tonight. Oh, lordy, here come Mr. Carter. He'll skin me alive. Cookies! Cookies! Did you finish cutting outside a bit like I told you? Well, I practically finished, Mr. Carter. Alabama, I'd like to talk with you a little. Oh, sure, Mr. Carter. I'll be right with you. I'll be back before long, boys. Sure. We'll be out here singing a little. What's on your mind, Dad? Alabama, do you know anything about this Steve Bradford that's just moved onto the body? Nothing more than you do. I ain't seen much of him since the dance up at the house. I hear he's bought out two or three ranches in the country. Yeah, paid cash for my hear. Wish I knew more about him, where he come from and what he's here for and all that. You mean because of Rose? No, I figure Rose knows how to take care of herself. It's about the Red Horse Ranch. Sure enough. You've been talking to him? Yes. Alabama, Steve Bradford's made me a cash offer for the Red Horse Outfit. He wants to buy this ranch? Yes, he didn't offer me much, but, well, it's a chance for me to sell. Tim Jones in the bank was out again today and says he's not going to renew his loan on the ranch this spring. Say, Bradford is going in for ranching in a big way, ain't he? Rose know anything about this, Dad? No. No, I ain't told her yet. Well, I just can't seem to make up my mind. If her mother was with us, that's why I could ask her, but here she's gone now. Well, I sure should wait a little while. Something may turn up. I may not get another offer. Well, you know this outfit's sticking by you, every one of us. I tell you, Dad, you're letting us worry you too much. Come on down to the bunkhouse. We'll have the boys cheer us up a bit. Well, might as well, I guess. Her singing is right pretty. It's yours. Say, boys, lay over that slow stuff and give us a fast one, all of you. Sure will. Come on, Montana, and light into that squeeze box. Let's hear all of you go to town. I'll tell you, get your axes and cut down that old fine tree. I think I can sleep on that one. Good night to you all. What's on the boss's mind, Alabama? Plenty, tenderfoot. You remember this Steve Bradford that just bought out the bar D? Well, he's wanting to buy the Red Horse outfit now. Buy this range? Buy Jack says something powerful strange about that, Bradford. Wanting all the land around here. Well, Idaho, you better keep your thoughts to yourself. Boys, if we get finished with the brandon tomorrow, we'd better turn in. You mind pulling off my boots for me, Tech? Better keep your thoughts to yourself. What does Alabama mean? And what about Steve Bradford? Will Dad Carter really sell him the Red Horse Ranch? And what does Steve want with all this land? That's worth finding out, isn't it? Let's be sure to listen for the next episode of Life on Red Horse Ranch.
