| Parody Song Title: | "Tonto's Confession" |
| Parody Written by: | Agrimorfee |
In wild west where desert wind blow
I am Indian, they just call me Tonto
Tonto find no fine squaw to love
Tonto he then meet Lone Ranger
Him ride a horse name Silver I see
Him wear black mask to hide identity
Me pinching self, say "Is this a dream?"
Tonto falling for Lone Ranger
We skip stones over near lake bluff
We skinny dip in lake, that not so tough
Come the morning, yes Tonto's heart swell
Way out in wilderness, you do not need motel
Tonto love Ranger
Him not a stranger
Tonto love Ranger
It is Lone Ranger him love, Hi-yo! Hi-Yo!
Heap strange attraction, but him fill a need
It could be fancy clothes him wear while he ride his steed
Him heap good loving, when away Tonto may swoon
Him leave no silver bullet behind, him come back soon
Tonto love Ranger
Him not a stranger
Tonto love Ranger
Tonto, Lone Ranger in love
Yes, Tonto not like most Navajos
Tonto has a love heap like a rose
Who else is Tonto going to love?
Not his horsey!
Love heap Lone Ranger
Him not a stranger
On road we roam, with the stars above
We catch 'um bad guys, all the big hero stuff
Tonto has the passion for Captain Dan Reid
This kemosabe bring what Tonto need
Tonto love Ranger
Him not a stranger
Tonto love Ranger
Him be the ranger I love
Tonto love Ranger, him not a stranger...
I am Indian, they just call me Tonto
Tonto find no fine squaw to love
Tonto he then meet Lone Ranger
Him ride a horse name Silver I see
Him wear black mask to hide identity
Me pinching self, say "Is this a dream?"
Tonto falling for Lone Ranger
We skip stones over near lake bluff
We skinny dip in lake, that not so tough
Come the morning, yes Tonto's heart swell
Way out in wilderness, you do not need motel
Tonto love Ranger
Him not a stranger
Tonto love Ranger
It is Lone Ranger him love, Hi-yo! Hi-Yo!
Heap strange attraction, but him fill a need
It could be fancy clothes him wear while he ride his steed

Lord Agree, I must say, that this is your BEST ever! Sooo Cowboy! And sooo very ' ol'Roy ' !! Although the Tres Hermanos Campagna would NOT care for this . . . I find it a rather lilting tribute to the 'buddy' theme, so often seen in American movies/TV. Great work, Sir !
Yippie kai yay... fantastic, Ag :-D
Tonto ambush bad man in canyon. Tonto scare him horse. Him horse go wild and throw heap bad man to ground. Bad man no move. Tonto think him have broke back.
Fine write here Aggie - most entertaining - Five-Oh Silver!

I broke my back coming down a mountain so I could read this....gloriously funny, Ag, and a special mention for "Way out in wilderness, you do not need motel"...big heap 5s, kemosabe!
I've just read Guy's comment....d'oh! :-(
2nd View: Sir Agree, good verbage fo r" Tonto-Dearest ". Ingun speak broke' English . . . very good write indeed, Sir ! Sounds 'right out of the '50's' !
This takes all of those gay cowboy parodies to a new and delightfully funny level. I too was a fan of the "Way out in wilderness, you do not need motel", as well as doing the entire thing in half English, which Tonto used.
Yippie-Ki-Yay cowboy ******
Tonto wish he could quit him
(Artistry) Could a wild west version of "Zorro, the Gay Blade" be in the works? Heap big laughs!
(Artistry) This one heap funny, though I never see the show! Me too young, see. Agri get 5's from me, kemosabe (heh, that's a funny word)!
(Artistry) I also am not familiar with Tonto, but you painted enough of a picture to where I didn't need to. Before realizing what you were doing, I was getting grammar shock--but as I got further into it and realized how weird this would have sounded with proper grammar, I was very pleased with the result.
This is the funniest that I've read so far in the competition (artistry whitesnake, going top to bottom) and I think it's mostly because of the caricatured language, with "not his horsey" being my favorite line.
(SOTM) Excellent!
(Artistry) Another childhood favorite ruined. First was the realization of Bert and Ernie, now this. Is nothing sacred? (of course I know the answer to that, NO!) :-) Very funny write.
Lord Agree, really Sir, this is quite good, perhaps ~ WranglerWestern.com ~ would post it ?!? It takes 4 weeks for them to review each poem. Then there's ~GayCowBoyCentral.com~ I know they'd love it !! Your poem is a true gem containing all the elements of delightful parody, it being naughty, edgy, Sexy, Funny & RETRO. Good luck, Sir.
SOTM - Sioux that's the story, huh? Guess they also reincarnated as Batman and Robin in the next century then...
See above...wait that's a pigeon!!! RUN!!!
(SOTM) Done in character exceptionally well, and while I didn't think it was one of your funniest songs, I did think it was a very well written song.
SOTM - Tarzan think this good parody. Frankenstein agree, he say "Hrrrrnn!"
Seemed like a few pacing issues with the recording, maybe it scans exactly with printed lyrics. But the absurdity of the lyrics more than compensated. 455

(SOTM) See above, kemosabe (I still say it's a funny word)!
It didn't break my back reading this again.
Still brilliant... I can almost hear a vaguely Americanized Coverdale singing this :-)
...and a security code of "VYL" - not normally of note, but I've only got the OS on vinyl

(SOTM) Well, you got my opinion back in the Whitesnake round on this one:)
(SOTM-Jun-08) See my comments above - this one rocks. Amazing how steroetypical the old westerns were with the Native American vernacular. Great movies of late like "Dancing With Wolves" had the native speakers speaking in their own tongue with English sub-titles. Glad we are past for the most part "Heap big chief say no got 'em wumpum, here me trade 'em knife for firewater" My comments poke fun at the ignorance of the times and not the noble aborigine. I got the same take from your parody. Extremely well done.
Brokeback Injun, lol. Barely remember the Lone Ranger, but I didn't need much to get this. The characterization was great and the idea excellent. "Way out in wilderness, you do not need motel" haha! 555
