Boss of Hangtown Mesa (1942)

It is now an accepted fact that the best of Johnny Mack Brown's Universal westerns were directed by the talented Joseph H. Lewis. Boss of Hangtown Mesa may not be in the same league as the Brown-Lewis classic Arizona Cyclone, but it comes awfully close. This time around, hero Steve Collins (Brown) comes to the aid of Betty Wilkins (Helen Deverell), who has taken over the telegraph-line business established by her uncle John (Henry Hall). The latter was murdered by outlaws who don't cotton to having the territory linked up electronically with the rest of the world.

The movie Boss of Hangtown Mesa, released in 1942, features 5 songs from artists like Nora Lou Martin and The Pals of the Golden West. What is your favorite song from Boss of Hangtown Mesa?
