And the Light Crossed Old Boys are on the air!
Now listen everybody from near and far, if you want to know who we are.
The Light Crossed Old Boys from Burrowsville.
If you like the way we play, listen at this time each day.
The Light Crossed Old Boys from Burrowsville.
All day long, we'll sing this song.
You get this song, you can't go wrong.
And how we wear a smile, make things right.
Make you happy come home tonight.
For the Light Crossed Old Boys from Burrowsville.
Happy Noontime again everybody.
You're listening to the Light Crossed Old Boys, a program sponsored and transcribed by the Burrowsville and Elevator Company.
Makers of good old Light Crossed Flower.
And here's our opening number today.
Buddy and Bass will sing for us, Hand Me Down My Walking King.
Hand me down my walking king, hand me down my walking king. Hand me down my walking king, I'm gonna leave on the midnight train. All my sins have been taken away.
Hand me down my bottle of corn. Hand me down my bottle of corn. Hand me down my bottle of corn. I'm gonna get drunk and show you boys cause all my sins have been taken away.
I got drunk and I got in jail. I got drunk and I got in jail. I got drunk and I got in jail.
Where no one can hold my bills, no one can hold my sins, but they've done away.
If I'd listen to what Mama said. If I'd listen to what Mama said. If I'd listen to what my Mama said, I'd be asleep in a feather bed cause all my sins are taken away.
If you use a light cross flower. If you use a light cross flower. If you use a light cross flower, then your biscuit won't be stuck and all my sins are taken away.
Always a good old number that hand me down my walking king, but I particularly like that last verse where the boys sing about ye good old light cross flowers.
And ye good old biscuits that you make out of ye good old light cross flowers.
And our friends, the next number on the program is going to feature Buddy with a mighty pretty little tune that we have received from one of our listeners in Dequeen, Arkansas.
It was Mr. W.W. Dawkins who has written a little number that we think you folks might enjoy. So here it comes, When It's Moonlight in the Ozarks.
When it's moonlight in the Ozarks, lightly the breezes blow. When it's moonlight in the Ozarks, little maiden, where will you go?
Where will you go? Will you go to the woods where wild flowers bloom? Where breezes are laden with sweetest perfume?
Let us dance with the fairies with hearts full of glee. Let us sing with the nightingales as we're roaming carefree. When it's moonlight in the Ozarks, golden stars will shine.
When it's moonlight in the Ozarks, little maiden, you will be mine.
Let us dance with the fairies with hearts full of glee. Let us sing with the nightingales as we're roaming carefree.
When it's moonlight in the Ozarks, golden stars will shine. When it's moonlight in the Ozarks, little maiden, you will be mine.
You're listening to the regular noonday program of the Light Cross Doe Boys coming to you from station KTHS in good old Hot Springs, Arkansas.
And we want to remind all of our friends and listeners that after next Tuesday the Light Cross Doe Boys will be off the air for a period of three weeks.
Taking a little vacation trip and at the same time going out to good old Hollywood, California to make a motion picture along with Gene Autry, famous cowboy singer and motion picture star.
Perhaps that picture will appear in your community sometime within the next few months and you can go around and see it and see what these old Light Cross Doe Boys look like.
But anyway, we are going off the air for three weeks beginning next Wednesday. Our last program will be next Tuesday at noon until June the 10th.
Wednesday, June the 10th at 1230 noon. We'll be back with you again for our regular daily programs each weekday after that.
But now here's the next number. Junior's going to play 5'2 on that banjo here.
Oh, damn.
Yeah.
Well, friends, the Light Cross Doe Boys want to remind you that today is Saturday and naturally, of course, tomorrow is Sunday, a mighty good time to go to church.
Any church, anywhere, but do go to some church tomorrow and every Sunday we think you'll feel lots better for it.
And right in keeping with this little thought now, Buddy, Bashful, and Abner are going to answer the request of many of our listeners who have asked to hear again a beautiful hymn called When I Take My Vacation in Hampton.
So many are taking vacations To the mountains, the lakes, and the sea Where they rest from their cares and their worries What a wonderful time that must be
But it seems not my lot to be like this I must talk through the heat and the cold Seeking out the lofty bones of the mountains Bringing wanderers back through the hole
When I take my vacation in heaven What a wonderful time that will be Hearing concerts by the heaven, the chorus And the smiles of the angels I see
Sitting down on the banks of the river Beneath the shade of the evergreen tree I shall rest from my burden forever Won't you take your vacation with me
I'll take my vacation with you
When I take my vacation in heaven
When I take my vacation in heaven What a wonderful time that will be
Hearing concerts by the heaven, the chorus And the smiles of the angels I see Sitting down on the banks of the river Beneath the shade of the evergreen tree
I shall rest from my burden forever Won't you take your vacation with me
The Side Cross Dough Boys Save Your Own Life Club is still open to you for membership.
This is a club in which we have already over 200,000 members throughout the southwestern states.
Young men and young women, young boys and young girls who have realized that it's necessary for them to take more precaution for them to be more careful of their own lives when they're out walking or playing on the highways, streets, or roadways.
And so we offer you membership in our club with the idea that perhaps by saying this pledge over with us occasionally on our Saturday programs that it might tend to remind you from time to time of the necessity of you being more careful of your own life.
The pledge is we ask you to promise this.
I will walk only on the left-hand side of the road facing the approaching traffic.
That's so you can better see what's coming toward you on your side of the road and jump out of the way if necessary.
The second is I will, if possible, suggest to others that I may see walking on the wrong side that they walk on the left-hand side.
Third, I will always stop, look, and listen carefully before I attempt to cross a highway, street, or railway.
Now those are the three things of the pledge that you must promise.
If you'd like to join our Light Crust Doughboys Save Your Own Life Club and you will promise those three things, then write to us, Light Crust Doughboys in Carolough Station KTHS in good old Hot Springs, Arkansas.
We'll make you a member of the club, sending you a membership letter and a membership button to wear on your dress or shirt.
And now here's Abner going to play Miss Baker's Hornpipe.
