[true title of the song unknown] This is a song from Rex Allen's 1953 film "The Old Overland Trail". Rex had tremendous range and a very clear yodel, as demonstrated here.

The title of the novel was inspired by lines from the song "Streets of Laredo", which is about a dying cowboy. It is sung by one of the ballplayers, Piney Woods, a back-up catcher, at a team gathering. The version of the song that he sings contains the lyrics, "Oh bang the drum slowly and play the fife lowly, and play the dead march as you carry me along..."
