A possible song challenge

From the blog page of Steve Miller, the sci-fi author:

Damn him!

So, due to circumstances beyond my control I had a less than restful night last night, and at one point "Liberty Valance" popped into my thoughts and absolutely got stuck, around and around. In trying to exorcise it around 3:10 AM I cast my thoughts to other recent happenings and oooops! I got a few lines....

The Man Who Shot LAWyer WHITtington, he was the VP of us all....

When it came to ducking real damn fast, that Lawyer was no good....

I haven't found it yet but I hear there is a parody of Aerosmith's song "Janie's got a gun". Yep - "Chaney's got a gun"

Has anyone heard any sort of a corrupted version of the account. It came to my mind that instead of him out hunting quail, he was hunting Dan Quayle and bagged a lawyer instead. A VP after a past VP???

What, this one?

Not much in the way of parody there. Looks and sounds kinda thrown together to get on the Web PDQ.

The song is done by Bob Rivers. He does the morning show for KZOK in Seattle. www.bobrivers.com

I'm not much of a poet. I thought one possibility could be a parody of "I shot the sheriff" to "I shot the lawyer." While looking for something else online, I found a site with loads of parodies, including many about our VP here:

I'm especially fond of the parody the to "Happy Trails" "Happy Quails"
