Theme song to the animated television series "The Flintstones" which ran over six seasons from September 30, 1960 to April 1, 1966. The show's theme song is one of the most recognizable to Americans, but it wasn't even used until the third season of the program. The opening and closing lyrics are identical except for the following lines:

Opening:
Let's ride with the family down the street
Through the courtesy of Fred's two feet

Closing:
Some day, maybe Fred will win the fight
And that cat will stay out for the night

The tune is a contrafact of I Got Rhythm (same chord structure but new melody).
