     Have Gun will travel reads the card of a Man.
       A knight without armor in a Savage Land.

     His fast gun for hire head's the calling Wind.
        A Soldier of Fortune is the man called ... Paladin.

     Paladin, Paladin where do you roam?
     Paladin, Paladin, Far, far from home.
      ...
     (the closing verse below was rarely heard on the TV show)

     He travels on to wherever he must;
     A chess knight of silver is his badge of trust.
     There are campfire legends that the plainsmen spin
     Of the man with the gun,
     Of the man called Pa-l-l-l-l-a-din.
