Thread Name: Lyr Req: Way Out There (Bob Nolan)
Subject: RE: Pete Seeger train song
Bob Nolan's "Way Out There" has been widely recorded, originally in the 1930s by Nolan's Sons of the Pioneers, a group that included Leonard Slye, the future Roy Rogers.

A couple of weeks ago, I heard a Bob Wills version from the 1930s on Mike Regenstrief's radio show.

I've also got recordings of it by Mary McCaslin, Cisco Houston, Hank Snow, Roy Rogers, the Sons of the San Joaquin and, of course, Pete Seeger.
