The Lone Ranger

THE LONE RANGER

There once was a man called the Lone Ranger
To his friend Tonto he was no stranger
When surrounded he said
Tonto we'll soon be dead
Tonto replied, what you mean we, Ranger

Hi, Gordon! Sorry I'm so late in responding to this. It was one of my favorites as well so the limerick was sorta easy to write.

I would have said, "what you mean we, paleface but it doesn't rhyme and could have seemed racial to some. Glad you liked it, Tom!
