A modern composition of an old-timey tune. It's a bit challenging to play with its timing, but pleasant and lively. The "Golden Ticket" may have originated as a well-understood concept from the book and movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

From the Harry and Jean West 1950's recording. I went with an old-time style of 3-finger picking and zeroed in on his vocals for a melody. The song also goes by Louisville Burglar.
