rootin' tootin' and START IT ALL OVER

Hello,
I would like to know the exact meaning of this sentence I have read on the Bob Dylan's Chronicles:
'Danny and I would see each other again in ten years and we'd work together once more in a ROOTIN' TOOTIN' way.
We'd make a record and START IT ALL OVER, pick up where we left off.'
Thanks in advance, Jo.
