Here is an excerpt form
her story that inspired the picture. (Parts
omitted unrelated to picture.)
Keith: Who are you, and what have you done with Patty?
I was feeling inspired, okay?
Disclaimer: WEP owns it if you
recognize it from Voltron. I can only wish... Oh yeah, "Rawhide"
was written by Frank Laine.
A/N: The first part of this part (redundancy anyone?) is in script format
cause it works best that way.
Hazar, Lotor, Lance, & Hunk: Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Hunk: Rawhide!
Hazar: Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Lotor: Though the streams are swollen
Lance: Keep them dogies rollin'
Hunk: Rawhide!
Hazar: Rain and wind and weather

Lance: Wishin' my gal was by my side.
Hunk: All the things I'm missin',
Hazar: Good vittles
Lotor: Love

Hunk: Rawhide!

Don't try to understand 'em

Hazar: My hearts calculatin'
Lotor: My true love will be waitin',
Lance: Be waitin' at the end of my ride.
Hunk: Rawhide!
Rawhide!
Sven applauded, but slowed and stopped when Keith gave him a glare.
Pidge was seated on a fence rail, with a stick in hand, held like a
conducting baton.
“Alright” the young man grinned, “one more time!”
He raised the baton. Lance hummed a note and the other three joined
in to make a chord. They took a deep breath, but Keith halted them,
eye twitching.
“No. No more. That’s the TENTH time! I don’t even
wanna’ know HOW you all happen to know the theme from Rawhide,
but if I have to here that damn song one more time...”
Lotor whistled. “Did he just swear?”
“Mm-hmm,” Hazar affirmed, backing away slightly from the
irate space explorer.
“Aw, lighten up,” Lance rolled his eyes. “You KNOW
we don’t have anything else to do.”
“Well,” Pidge piped up, “you guys know any other
songs?” The four singers conferred in a huddle.
“Please,” Keith gazed up at the sky beseechingly, “PLEASE
let them get here soon!”
Keith was still fuming. “Since when do you sing, anyways, Lotor?”
“I’ll have you know, Hazar and I were members of a prize
winning barbershop quartet!”
Hazar nodded. “If we’re all together at a function, we
still get requests.”
“Whatever.”
Peg-leg Patty
Who is still picturing Voltron characters dressed like cowboys and singing
Rawhide.. Hee hee.
