Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Joke
Subject: Lyr Req: Song Name of a 50's Funny Rocker Please
Part of lyrics
"They say Red Ryder Rode A horse but it just ain' so, he drove a car
and they say Cheyenne shot up the land but he really was a restate man"

"they say Bat Masterson Carried a cane
but that's not so
he drove a train
They say that old Cheyenne shot up the land
but he really was a real estate man.
I think the song ended with something like " it's ain't a lie it's a joke"
Just cannot remember name from 1950's or 60's
These are some of the likely mixed up lyrics I can remember. It was a rocking good tune that I would love to get. That is impossible without the Title and who sang it.It is not the Bat Masterson Theme or Long Tall Texan. Anyone who can help with this I would really appreciate it as I have spent way to much time over 20 years fretting on it. Thank you and sing on.
