Actually Dick Cheney wrote the song "I Shot The Sheriff"

Noel

p.s.
The right answer is
Vice President Charles Dawes wrote "It's All in the Game" a song that was a 1958 hit for Tommy Edwards. Carl Sigman composed the lyrics in 1951 to fit a wordless 1911 composition entitled "Melody in A Major," written by Charles Dawes
