I'd like Dedicate this to Sierra John ,, a awesome singer a great Entertainer and a great Friend.. and with a name like his knows what this song is all about...

Well its 109F in Bakersfield ca,,, 111F in Vegas... 124F Death Valley .. so i had to sing it again today..

I lived at Orlancha in Owens valley; not far from death valley, for a bit.. up by Movie flats.. where they use to film almost all westerns..

Well before: Elvis, Johnny Cash, Willie, there was Bob Nolan and the sons of the Pioneers, he was one of our hero's ...

lots have sang this song..Frankie Lane, Slim Whitman. but none got far with it except Bob.. Who put it at top of charts...
