Subject: RE: Origins: Tennesse Killer / Arizona Killer
Whoa There! Jest a miute!   I don't know whether to feel honored or ripped off. How come my song, my copywrittn melody and lyrics of The Arizona Killer are on your site without my knowing anything about it????? Someone had to get it out of my book Ten Thousand Goddam Cattle, where the music is annotated and all the lyrics appear.

When the next to last verse appeared in the movie "3:10 to Yuma" someone emailed me (first I'd heard of it) and asked if I'd recorded the song, then sent me some sites, among them MudCat, were I hear my melody as well.

Naturally,I have a recording of it, along with all my other songs from my book and many more, so perhaps y'all better check my website and we'll see about how we might get it to you, along with the story about how and why it was written.
