Subject: I Don't Know Gee From Haw From: Andy Leader Date: 01 Jul 99 - 04:35 PM I'm looking for a song recorded many years ago by Grandpa Jones called "I Don't Know Gee From Haw". Any words and/or tune would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Andy |
Subject: RE: I Don't Know Gee From Haw From: puzzled Date: 01 Jul 99 - 05:56 PM Sorry don't know the tune but. . . When working with a pulling horse Gee is hollered when you want the horse to pull right. Haw is hollered when you want the horse to pull left. there are a number of folks around here that still keep and use (mostly for tourists, parades, festival etc.) buckboards and wagons pulled by horses. And a few (very few) that still plow and work fields with horses. There is even a need for drivers. People who know how to harness the animals and care for them as well as drive them. There aren't a whole lot of us left. |
