I thought that looked sorta familiar, but not quite... so I just played
`John Wesley Harding' and, as I remembered, the line is --
"Outside in the distance, a wildcat did growl.
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl."
Now, if'n I remember right, John Wesley Harding knew a bit about the use of
firearms... (desperate attempt to get back on topic)
