Source: (warner bros.)Pretty much every joke in Blazing Saddles pushes the envelope. Everything Mel Brooks creates is, at the very least, on the edge of bad taste which is what makes his work so fun. But in 2012 he admitted that there was one joke that even he wasn’t comfortable putting in the film. In an appearance on Conan, he explained that the cut joke occurred when Sheriff Bart, played by Cleavon Little, goes to visit Lili von Shtupp, played by Madeline Kahn.
When Von Shtupp flirts with Bart she blows out some candles. Then Brooks explained:

And she says in her German accent, 'Is it true what they say about you people?' And Cleavon says, 'I hate to disillusion you, ma'am, but you're sucking on my arm.'
