First, a riddle: 
 
Q: What's the difference between a violin and a fiddle?
A:  A violin has four strings; a fiddle has four strangs.
 
Anyway, the title of that piece is "Barney's Hoe Down" (three words).  It was 
indeed written by Earle Hagen, and apparently he had intended to use it as 
Barney's theme song.  The tune that sounds something like the Dragnet theme is 
entitled "The Man Hunt" (three words again), and this is tune that ended up 
being used as Barney's theme.
