As made famous by Frankie Laine, and transcribed form the Telarc
CD80141:  Pops Roundup, Cincinatti Pops, Erich Kunzel, conductor
vocals by Frankie Laine

verse:
Keep rollin' rollin' rollin,
Though the streams are swollen,
Keep them dogies rollin' -- Rawhide.
Through rain and wind and weather,
Hell bent for leather,
Wishin' my gal was by my side.
For all the thing's I'm missin',
Good vittles, love, and kissin',
Are waiting at the end of my ride.

chorus:
Move 'em out, hit 'em up,
Hit 'em up, move 'em out,
Move' em up, hit 'em out, Rawhide.
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in,
Ride 'em in, cut 'em out,
Cut 'em out, ride 'em in, Rawhide.

(chorus repeats)

Rawhide.  Rawhide.  Rawhide.  RAWHIDE!

For reference, the TV show "Rawhide," for which this was the theme,
played on CBS from January 1959 through January 1966.  The song is by
Ned Washington and Dmitri Tiomkin, and was sung over the credits by
Frankie Laine.  (Clint Eastwood played Rowdy Yates, the
second-in-command to the trail boss for most of the run.  In the final
season Rowdy took over as trail boss.)

Incidentally, Frankie Laine now lives in San Diego.  There was
recently a lengthy article on him in The Reader, a local free weekly
newspaper.
