I had the great pleasure of spending about 45 minutes in a booth at a coffee shop with Tex Ritter and Waylon Jennings in 1968. Waylon was griping about RCA and the songs they were making him cut and Tex was telling him that he should be happy now that he's on the national charts and making money. It is one of my most cherished memories

Tex Ritter was born in Panola county Texas in the Murvaul community which no longer exists but a nearby lake was named after it. I was born in Shelby county just a few miles down the county road. I got to see and hear him perform and talk to him while at college in Nashville in late 1972 just a little over a year before his death. It was a small but intimate gathering in the Law School auditorium.

Lucky me!!! As heros go, off screen what were they like? Better than their screen image. Tex Ritter and me, for example, he put his arm around my shoulder and we talked father-to-father. What an honor. What a "nice" human being. I was in radio at the time and acting as a host to a bunch of very big stars. I liked them all, but none.. none.. came close to the man who you are watching here. The very nicest, un-asumming (spl) man I have ever met.

"Just lost his primary run for senate in Tennessee." I saw him just before this when he dined at the Holiday Inn where I worked part time while in high school. He was in town for one of those package shows Nashville put on the road back then. Part of the package was the late Loretta Lynn, who I also got a chance to see. She was coming out of her room at the HI escorted by 2 auxiliary policemen, when I just happened to be in the area. I was immediately mesmerized by how beautiful she was in person and stood there staring at her like a sick calf. The policemen escorted her to a big gold Cadillac with "Tex Ritter for Senate" bumper stickers all over it. R.I.P. to both and thanks for the lifelong memories.

this version blends the films original lyrics of: "The noonday train will bring frank miller If I'm a man, I must be brave And I must face that deadly killer" with the re-written for release by Frankie Laine version: "I do not know what fate awaits me I only know I must be brave And I must face a man who hates me" I guess Tex has sung both versions so many times they blend into one!
