Is this line "he knows my face is filled with glee" from any movie/poem/song etc? sound familiar?

There are a lot of usages of "filled with glee", but nothing quite matches though I found a "face ... filled with glee".





Tell Me 'Bout the Good Ole Days





His eyes were bright and shiny, his face was filled with glee.


Tell me 'bout the good ole days, Grandpa,


As he climbed up on my knee.





Tell me 'bout the ghost riders and how they filled the sky.


And 'bout the wild mustang and how that colt could fly.





Tell me 'bout the Eagles and their silent golden flights.


And 'bout the mountain lions and wolves on moonlit nights.





Tell me 'bout the campfires and how they warm the cold.


And 'bout the forty-niners and how they found the gold.





Tell me 'bout the railroads coming 'round the bend.


And 'bout those lonely hearts and the letters that they send.





Tell me 'bout the mountains and how they reach the sky.


And 'bout the horse gone lame, as you watched a cowboy cry.





Tell me 'bout the purple sage, the rivers and streams.


And 'bout the pioneer wives coming West to help fulfill the dreams.





Tell me 'bout the rattlesnakes and how they like to bite.


And 'bout ol Rusty's courage, and how he'll stand 'n' fight.





Tell me 'bout the ranchers and how they help their friends.


And 'bout the Bronco Twister, and how he's too tough to bend.





Don't forget the western sky and how it's always blue.


And 'bout the Cowboys' hearts and how they're always true.





Well, I told all these stories to this little sleepy head.


And when his eyes were closed real tight, I tucked him in his bed.





I didn't tell him 'bout the Indians and how The Government broke its word.


What happened to the ranges and all those buffalo herds.





I didn't tell him 'bout the outlaws and how they're rarely caught.


The lawyers with their fancy pens, and what their laws have wrought.





I didn't tell him 'bout the valleys and how they're all paved over,


What happened to the grazing land, the flowers, and the clover.





I told him how the West was won, but I didn't mention cost.


I just wonder who the winners are...if it's the cowboys that we lost.
