The Title song from Marilyn's 1954 western co starring her big friend Robert Mitchum, they had known each other since she was Norma Jean Baker and she married his friend Jim Dougherty when they worked for Lockheed.
He looked out for her on the filmset, the studio couldn't rumour a romance as Marilyn's then husband Joe Di Maggio was also present.
Directed by Otto Preminger and filmed in the Banff and Jasper national parks in the Canadian Rockies the scenery and it's stars including 12 year old Tommy Rettig Mitchum's son who befriends Monroe's character made this a popular film on release, one of my all time favourites.
Marilyn sings this in bar at the end of the film, as she rides away Tennessee Ernie's version plays over the credits and also over the opening credits too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48ItfEcEAR8
