SYNOPSIS
A naïve farmer writing songs tries his chances in New York. Unlucky, he is helped by a crooner who lusts after one of his songs. Ignoring the real value of his composition, he sold it for the money he owed to his friends: $200.

Homer 'Spec' Higgins, a songwriter from rural Arkansas heads to New York City to make his fortune. However he is tricked by a radio star Don Gray who steals his song and claims it as his own. Further complications ensue when Higgins is backed by an ex-racketeer to produce more hit songs, but is unable to do so without Minnie his Jersey cow from back home. He also became entangled with Blues singer Barbara Holbrook and her drunken lawyer brother.
