== Personal life ==
David Lee Morris was born in Ridgecrest, California, on September 16, 1955, and soon acquired the nickname Rooster. Rooster spent his childhood immersed in the cowboy life. At the age of five, he began riding horses and working cattle with his father on ranches in the tri-state area of Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma. Because he lived in remote places and had few friends his own age, Rooster invented a unique way of entertaining himself. He started mimicking bird calls and coyote howls, then began developing unusual voices. Many years later, the skills he taught himself would result in the recording of an audio book written by John R. Erickson, the author of the ''Hank the Cowdog'' books. ''Moonshiner's Gold'' contained seventeen people for which Rooster did different voice characterizations.〔Erickson, J. R. ''Moonshiner's Gold''.〕
