I could probably imagine Tom waits singing it he does a little nod to lee in the ballard of buster scruggs he sing different song but you can tell where it's from
Our God is a Jealous God.. He created Man in his image.. and he expects Man to be like Him.. Amen “I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.”
Watched all the old Westerns with my Dad, when l was a kid growing up in the seventies.We loved them all. Shane, Rio Bravo, Magnificent Seven, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. All of ‘em. Dad loved this one too. For some reason, one way or another we never watched this one fully together. Now he is gone, and it saddens me we didn’t. One day Dad, one day.❤
Reminds me of my grandad he took me to see Paint your wagon at the pictures…he loved westerns. Turns out he was my step grandad but to me he was my grandad and he treated my like his blood grand daughter 🥺
I think if truth be told, we all had a soft spot for Lee, along with John Wayne, Randolf Scott just to name a few of the old greats.. this song holds many happy and dad memories for many..
Had a good friend back in time, I always quoted Lee Marvin from "Cat Ballou" for I was the only one preferring a drink there... I gave him a tape (!) with this song, now the name of his son is Marvin Lee. This Song is magic. Charly, you got it... hope things turn out good for you all, wich , with any your luck.....it's time for me to go
I love this song, and the movie, only Lee Marvin could pull this off .The end of the song has to be the most poignant expression of a man lonely and bereft as lonely and bereft as a man can be.
@@vincebaseley13 Well the British government puts all the illegal immigrants and economic migrants in top hotels, gives them vouchers for restaurants and posh clothes and taxis - all for free. They even hire security guards to stop.snyone going close. Meanwhile those homeless born here have to starve/freeze on the streets or live in hostels with violent career criminals, drug dealers and murderers. I don't understand it Vince. ☹️
Watched a lot of musicals when I was younger with my mum,knew most of the words too She passed recently of dementia.watched the musicals with her then as well.i saw the change in her when I put one one This was one of my and her favourites
A war hero, a great actor and a wonderful man. They don't make them like him anymore. He reminds me of my grandad and dad. Men of few words but when they spoke you listened. RIP.
Great song. Lee Marvin was a great actor. Those of us who were Marines in the 60’s knew that Lee was one of us, a Marine veteran of World War Two, wounded while fighting in the Pacific. He was the real deal. Thanks for sharing.
John Lee Marvin had cameo roles with Jack Palance, Palance a former heavyweight boxer and veteran of US Airforce trainee pilot baled out of his B17 and broken his leg and pelvis and was discharged from the armed forces in 1944 . He took a veterans ticket to finish his college degree and did it at Stamford majored in journalism had variety of jobs before becoming a Hollywood star in 1950s for film noirs .
MICHAEL HONODEL......My dad also sang like him ,he was a country fan and used to sing at venues .i too am remembering my dad , i bet theyre up there together singing to the Angels ,Godbless our dads until we meet them again . Rest in Peace And Love .💜🙏💔
Many people could have done it better. But in this case better is not better. Rumson, like most Lee Marvin characters, is drunk, violent and all around rough the edges. It my not have ben good but it fits his character.

Yes, it brings back a lot of memories in me too. Listening to this song and looking out from my window and dreaming. Made it 5000 miles westwards, and this is for wandering far enough..
My mum took me to see this film when I was 9. I had three older siblings but she took only me. I have no idea why it was just me but the memory of spending a day at the pictures with my mum and being spoilt rotten whilst watching what I thought at the time was just magical has lived with me forever. God bless you mum. x
Perhaps your mum wanted some special time just with you, not with all the family, and to show that you were valued as an individual. Well it certainly worked, you have a treasured memory of a lovely mother.
Sometimes moms see things in their children that no one else does. She saw that something in you for that film in that time. I’ll always be thankful for my mom taking me to the movies while my dad was serving in WWll. I more or less grew up with all the greats. God bless our moms.
VERY sorry for the lost of your loved wife, Mr.King. I know what it is. I lost my wife on 2008,and today 7th April 2022, is just one more day. In the meantime in fact this is a very beautiful song,a great film and a great LEE MARVIN. God be with you Mr. King. Regards from LISBON.
A true American Hero. He fought for this country in WWII ! An his movie career was one of greatness. An this song was number on in its day. A pray you are in Heaven, God Bless You !
@@CRAIG5835 Wayne was not fit to lick Lee Marvin's boots. Wayne went out of his way to avoid serving in WW2 instead putting his career first. Marvin on the other hand was the real deal, being wounded while serving in USMC in the Pacific theater...
“he did it-he missed the barn!!” but he sure didn’t miss with this song! by far the best part of a good movie, and a performance that will always be cherished ❤
Goodness, I loved this song but unfortunately lost my hearing through virus, ten years later with help from my Cochlear Implant and technology I have just heard Lee Marvin with this great song once again.
Lee Marvin was indeed a great actor .I just realized he did this song .the movie was on over here the other night .I didn't know he was a U.S.Marine thank you sir .I love the dirty dozen I also watched that movie the other night for a dozen or more times .I just turned 60 Dec 31st .but I have to say the wild one was a good movie as well .he did an awesome job .my dad's fav movie was the wild one with Brando and Marvin .
I was in this movie and was talking with Lee Marvin just before we started shooting this scene. We were talking about a movie I was in with Elvis called Double Trouble. I was in the band with Elvis as his lead guitar player in the film. The producer of Double Trouble was Judd Bernard who was the producer of a movie called Point Blank starring Lee Marvin. Lee was telling me how he and Judd has a little understanding before he agreed to do the film. Lee told me that the agreement was that he got to do his thing and the producer got to do his thing. In Lee's case it was to get to take a nip or two whenever he liked. Lee also took a nip or two during the filming of Paint Your Wagon. Which was a blast to make by the way. Three or four hundred hippies high as kites playing drunken gold miners. It doesn't get any more surreal than that. What a way to spend the Summer of 1969 living in the mountains 50 miles out of Baker City, Oregon. A time I will never forget.
As I watched this clip I thought of a few things pretaining to the lives of myself and family. I also found sort of a connection to this man and wished I would have known him. Funny what 3 minutes can do for a person. Thank you very much for sharing a part of your life.
Working on the movie gave me a chance to chat with beatiful co-star Jean Seaberg about the writings of her ex husband Romain Rolland. She died a short time later.
Don’t know how I found myself here - fair and square down Memory Lane. Dad loved this film - he and Mom took us to see it on a rainy day whilst on holiday in Paignton, Devon. Being a brat I complained as I never expected to love the film like I did. I lost my dear Dad in May this year how I wish I could turn back the clock. Miss you Dad - sorry I was such a grump, I’ll be seeing you and Mom again sometime ❤️💔❤️
Hello 👋 Kim. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Scott Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
actually to me this is perfectly done, his voice suit his character and his voice suit the song to a T..brilliant, one of the reasons i love this film.
I have loved Lee since I was 6 yrs old,when my parents took me to see "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance". Liberty was my first crush,..and he still is my big crush.
This was my father's favorite song from his favorite musical. He passed away this year on December 10th. He followed his star. I am so proud of him and I miss him.
I love the juxtaposition of the perfect harmony and quality of the chorus against the gritty, rough, slightly out of tune voice of Lee Marvin. Absolutely perfect. Never forget "All who wander are not lost."
I remember when my mom took me to the pictures to see this. She loved Lee Marvin. Actually although his voice is a bit croaky he is singing in tune! He was so ruggedly handsome
I grew up listening to my dear dad singing this song. My dad had a VERY deep voice when singing. This song sung by the magnificent Lee Marvin reminds me SO much of my dad. Love this tune ❤️
Went to see Paint your wagon on.the bigscreen & loved every minute of this great movie! Both Lee & Clint in love with the same woman! Partners & worked it out!! RIP Lee. I loved your singing! 😢❤
I can NOT imagine anyone singing this song better than Lee Marvin. With his amazing sexy gravely voice. Just purfect for him to sing. Well done Lee xxxx
Hello 👋 April. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Scott Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Beautiful baritone voice. These were the days when film & music was art & magic, which is sadly lost to culture now, replaced by vacuous consumerist greed.
This film was one of the best portrayals of the Klondyke gold fields i have ever seen.the soundtrack was superb.the only people who got rich here were the hustlers.
This song defines my life. And Lee Marvin, one of the last tough guys, singing it, is so good. Paint Your Wagon ain't great. But it's good, and this song is one of the reasons.
Lee Marvin, a REAL HERO!!! An absolute legend and I genuinely love him!!! This will be the last song I will ever hear…. Beautiful! R.I.P Lee Marvin you are so missed and loved!x
This was definitely Lee Marvin’s song. I don’t think anyone else would, or could do it Justice. Paint Your Wagon was a great musical, the music was great and the actors were phenomenal.
Real heart & soul, no 'auto tuning' here that is what it makes REAL Music......So beautifully rhythmically sung.......Such wonderful presence.....Beautiful.......
Hello 👋 Jane. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Scott Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Lee Marvin was born to sing this song.
😇
Well said!
Lee Marvin's lack of a singing voice is what nade the song so powerful. Lee gave us the contemplative feelings of a lonely, homeless, wanderer. The character he protrayed in this movie. A better voice couldn't give us that.
The loneliness expressed in this song breaks my heart!
It describes me to a T. In fact, I’m hitting the road again in the middle of June. I’m Pioneer Pam and my Ford Transit 250 van is my Covered Wagon! YeeHaw!!!!!
Lee Marvin was an amazing actor, he never got the greatest respect he deserved
He won an Oscar
Paint Your Wagon, one of the great movies of all time.
Lee was nervous because he couldn't carry a tune to save his life. But, this song was a hit and he earned a gold record. I can't imagine this song being sung by anybody else. Sometimes imperfection can be a plus.
Actually, his pitching is pretty good!
The strapping male chorus certainly helps.
I could probably imagine Tom waits singing it he does a little nod to lee in the ballard of buster scruggs he sing different song but you can tell where it's from

My dad used to sing it to me when I was a baby
Lee Marvin. This song was written for him. He was hardly a singer, but he aced his one!!!
Honestly sounds like Leonard Cohen
You maybe right mate, tho Lee makes it sound cool, Leonard was bit grim at times
This was my late Dad's favorite. I agree nobody else could sing this song. Brings back good memories
My dad absolutely loved this song, he passed away 4 weeks ago will always remind me of him forever❤️
It's something of the past which will aLways bring wonderful memories.If it's song we all born under a wondering Star. XXX
Sorry to hear that
My dad passed away two years ago, and this was his favourite song as well, he had great taste
Sorry about your dad. Lost my dad a few years ago. It doesn’t get any easier missing someone.
So sorry to hear of your loss. I remember my Dad singing this when I was very little.
Lee Marvin was one of my favorite actors.
Reminds me of my grandad he took me to see Paint your wagon at the pictures…he loved westerns. Turns out he was my step grandad but to me he was my grandad and he treated my like his blood grand daughter 🥺
Love is stronger than blood. 👍
I think if truth be told, we all had a soft spot for Lee, along with John Wayne, Randolf Scott just to name a few of the old greats.. this song holds many happy and dad memories for many..
..sad..
Loved the movie and I cried when I first saw and heard this song back in 1969. Still did just that watching it today, in May 2024.
This was the last song at my Grandad's funeral. It couldn't have been more perfect. I will protect this with all my life.
God bless you
❤
So sorry for your loss
It will be played at my funeral . over 50 year working all over the world perfect song to sum up my increadeb life traveling Steve Carter
A perfect choice, considering I grew up listening to 2pac….
Great film
Great song
Great actor
RIP Lee Marvin.
29th August 1987 🪦
And a Purple Heart Marine.
I could not agree with you more! I thought the film was great and humorous at the same time.
This is far removed from the Broadway play it came from. But very much for the better!
One of the best!
this is a bloody classic i love it well done lee Marvin IM 62
I visited Lee Marvin's grave in Arlington National Cemetery. Lee was a purple heart recipient while fighting in the Pacific during WW2.

I love this song, and only Lee Marvin could sing it for me!!
Just fxxking amazing you really felt what he was singing about anyone who has walked this road knows what it's about
I love this song, and the movie, only Lee Marvin could pull this off .The end of the song has to be the most poignant expression of a man lonely and bereft as lonely and bereft as a man can be.
I feel exactly as he did Pete.
You have to experience true isolation and hardship to know how great this song really is. 👍
Yeah. Homelessness and destitution is worse than death. It is LIVING death. Nobody should be homeless.

Lee Marvin was in the dreams of many, many women in the 60’s and 70’s.

I love the juxtaposition of the perfect harmony and quality of the chorus against the gritty, rough, slightly out of tune voice of Lee Marvin. Absolutely perfect. Never forget "All who wander are not lost."
This amazing song was number 1 on the Uk charts for over a month back in 1970 😎

Lee Marvin was a Marine who fought on Iwo Jima. Yes, a true hero-actor, they don't make them like that anymore.
LOVED his Johnny Carson appearance where Johnny confirmed he was wounded and Marvin said "Yeah! I was shot in the ass."

Lee's voice is just perfect ,I love this tune and only Lee can sing it
I grew up listening to my dear dad singing this song. My dad had a VERY deep voice when singing. This song sung by the magnificent Lee Marvin reminds me SO much of my dad. Love this tune ❤️
Went to see Paint your wagon on.the bigscreen & loved every minute of this great movie! Both Lee & Clint in love with the same woman! Partners & worked it out!! RIP Lee. I loved your singing! 😢❤
He had a great speaking voice. You can recognize it immediately.
I can NOT imagine anyone singing this song better than Lee Marvin. With his amazing sexy gravely voice. Just purfect for him to sing. Well done Lee xxxx
Hello 👋 April. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Scott Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Back in the day were the Hollywood stars were REAL people! Today most never lived the hardships needed to be a real star.
Beautiful baritone voice. These were the days when film & music was art & magic, which is sadly lost to culture now, replaced by vacuous consumerist greed.
Bass actually - a baritone couldn't get that low.
this is my absolute favorite song of all time..
Mine too..memories of my nanna

It's a stretch, but, i'm
inclined to agree with
You 😁🌟
Me too..reminds me of all the imperfect heroes in my life....
I'm a fan of"Mariah".
This film was one of the best portrayals of the Klondyke gold fields i have ever seen.the soundtrack was superb.the only people who got rich here were the hustlers.
My grandad used to hum this song to me 🥺 I miss him so much
Ain't this song A blessing and a Curse!
🥺😢
Our lives are short, so we can live only when we have God.
Great song and great movie
This song defines my life. And Lee Marvin, one of the last tough guys, singing it, is so good. Paint Your Wagon ain't great. But it's good, and this song is one of the reasons.
Lee Marvin, a REAL HERO!!! An absolute legend and I genuinely love him!!! This will be the last song I will ever hear…. Beautiful! R.I.P Lee Marvin you are so missed and loved!x
Dem Deutschen Roten Kreuz Sylt ein Dank für die letzte Begleitung ❤😢moni
This was definitely Lee Marvin’s song. I don’t think anyone else would, or could do it Justice. Paint Your Wagon was a great musical, the music was great and the actors were phenomenal.
My late father always spoke of this scene and song,Saying “Lee Marvin isn’t singing he’s thinking and talking out loud”
Nice one Dad.
Same as Clint. Both were very nervous about singing at first, but they were told to just sing in their natural tone as they spoke. Made a great movie.
Real heart & soul, no 'auto tuning' here that is what it makes REAL Music......So beautifully rhythmically sung.......Such wonderful presence.....Beautiful.......
Big fan of Lee Marvin. Loved all of his movies and his tv show in the 1950's.
God...what a voice lee marvin had 💖💖💖💖💖
Marvin's "singing" was "Like rain gurgling down a rusty pipe."-Co-star Jean Seberg.
Awesome! Unforgettable!! Great song, great actor, great movie
What a beautiful deep voice ❤
I love it too! ❤❤
wonderful song sad song but makes me smile
This was my dear friend Tony pike,s favourite song. Bless. I love this too.
