A common plot point in Gene Autry's musical B Westerns finds Gene and his side kick Smiley in jail. And they always end up singing in the jail cell. In the 1939 Republic Pictures film "Rovin' Tumbleweeds" Smiley Burnette and the singing group the Pals of the Golden West sing "On the Sunny Side of the Cell" as Gene listens to the humorous tune. © Autry Qualified Interest Trust and The Autry Foundation Read about the movie "Rovin' Tumbleweeds" here: http://geneautry.com/geneautry/motion...
