A Journey to the Western River

Sorry for the repetition. This is the most original name I could think of so I named it "A Journey to the Western River" to match the feel of the song. Pardon the extremely choppy noise, that is supposed to symbolize the harsh sandy winds and river noises.

You are a cowboy in the Old West, and you are on your way to the Mississippi River. This song will describe your journey across the sandy and uninhabited lands, through sufferable winds and dust storms, and battling other cowboys to the Mississippi River. The Old West back then, by the way, was actually known as the westernmost point of the United States colonies (which is the states of Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Missouri). Past the Mississippi river is what is known now as the Great Plains. This big chunk of land was also known as the Louisiana Purchase, stretching from Louisiana to the Canadian Border. You and very few of your friends are going to be some of the first people to get passed the Mississippi River, and you are getting into the land of the Native Americans, whom were mistakenly called "Indians" by Christopher Columbus. The end of the song symbolizes the success of getting passed the Mississippi River.
