Chubby, Was He?



He often was gruff and looked grubby
So heavy he could be dubbed 'Tubby'
But Johnson had folks
who liked dirty jokes
Why else would they call their kid Chubby?


Character actor Chubby Johnson played Kansas Sawyer on 3
episodes of The Rifleman. Johnson appeared in such Westerns as
Bend of the River and The Far Country, and was a regular in the
Rocky Lane series, as well as on the television show Sky King.
