Lyrics
MARSHALL DILLON AND MISS KITTY
George Scholz/Carol J. Mayberry-Sanchez
DonÂ?t let Hollywood seduce you
They donÂ?t make Â?em like they used to
Back when we were watchinÂ? westerns
Ya didnÂ?t have to be concerned
About what your kids might see
When you sat down to watch TV
The whole familyÂ?d gather round
Gunsmoke didnÂ?t need any surround sound
Yea, IÂ?ll take Marshall Dillon and Miss Kitty
Over MTV and Sex and the City
Desperate Housewives, Law and Order
Reality shows and hidden camcorders
That US Marshall and his red haired beauty
IÂ?ll take Marshall Dillon and Miss Kitty
Yea, those were the good oleÂ? days
EverÂ?thin was black and white, not gray
You drew down on Matt to open the show
And compared to you even he was slow
He never failed to come in from the trail
With the bad guys dead or headed to jail
Always a lesson to be learned
And a town waitinÂ? for his safe return
Repeat chorus
We still visit Dodge City on our new cable station
And I wanna thank the good Lord above for syndication
Repeat chorus
