Cowboys, Sisters, Rascals & Dirt is an album by American country music artist Waylon Jennings, released in 1993 through the labels BMG and Ode 2 Kids. A concept album, it features Jennings singing compositions intended for children. All of the tracks on the record were written by the singer himself. The final song is dedicated to Jennings' son, Shooter. While a music video for "Cowboy Movies" was filmed, the album itself did not chart. The album was recorded by Rodney Good and produced by Cliff "Barny" Robertson, whose daughters, Becky, Emily and Joanna, sing backing vocals on it. In the mid-2000s, the daughters founded a group called Carter's Chord.
