That sounds like the first line of a limerick
Lothar, I don't know whether you would know what a limerick is because it's a popular form of verse that's of English origin. I'd guess that style of poetry is not well known in other languages.
Here's a brief summary of the Wikipedia description:
A limerick is a short (5 line) poem. They're usually humorous and frequently rude. They have a rhyme scheme in which the first, second and fifth lines rhyme, while the third and fourth lines are shorter and share a different rhyme.
For example, Wikipedia has a nice description of a limerick, in the style of a limerick.
The limerick packs laughs anatomical
Into space that is quite economical.
But the good ones I've seen
So seldom are clean
And the clean ones so seldom are comical.
But getting back to your first line, how about this?
I rode once the bike from Burkhardt
To go fast, I didn’t have to work hard
But I got stopped by a cop
Who gave my licence the chop
Now I’m riding a bench in the jail yard
