The song is titled "Yosemite Sam" and boasts of YS's ability to hit anything he shoots at -- deer, squirrels, rabbits (he claims to use gumdrops instead of bullets).The music is by Billie May. The flip-side is Mel doing "I Taut I Taw a Puddy Tat", a sort of duet between Sylvester and Tweetie Pie. Rob Crumpley ATTISL Denver Co. work (303) 538-3455 path I don't know - I must be lost!
