Roy Rogers

 

This tv show was about a 1950's cowboy, his wife, their friends and their horses. They lived their lives on the Double R Ranch when they weren't out fighting bad guys. Roy Rogers' horse "Trigger" and dog "Bullet" would often rescue one of the actors from peril. Trigger was known as the "Smartest Horse In The Movies" (He and Roy made nearly 100 movies).

The Roy Rogers Show Theme Song Lyrics

Title: "Happy Trails"

Written By: "Dale Evans"

Performed By: "Roy Rogers and Dale Evans"

Some trails are happy ones,
Others are blue.

It's the way you ride the trail that counts,
Here's a happy one for you.

Happy trails to you,
Until we meet again.
Happy trails to you,
Keep smilin' until then.

Who cares about the clouds when we'ere together?
Just sing a song, and bring the sunny weather.

Happy trails to you,
Til we meet again.
