Well I caught my wife with another man |
| [00:14.78] |
And it cost me ninety nine |
| [00:19.80] |
On a prison farm in Georgia |
| [00:23.25] |
Close to the Florida line |
| [00:27.77] |
Well I'd been here for two long years |
| [00:30.40] |
I finally made the warden my friend |
| [00:35.52] |
And so he sentenced me to a life of ease |
| [00:38.63] |
Taking care of Ol Red |
| [00:42.83] |
Now Ol' Red he's the damnedest dog that I've ever seen |
| [00:50.77] |
Got a nose that can smell a two day trail |
| [00:54.16] |
He's a four legged tracking machine |
| [00:59.67] |
You can consider yourself mighty lucky |
| [01:02.76] |
To get past the gators and the quicksand beds |
| [01:07.86] |
But all these years that I've been here |
| [01:11.18] |
Ain't nobody got past Red |
| [01:14.29] |
And the warden sang |
| [01:15.99] |
Come on somebody |
| [01:17.77] |
Why don't you run |
| [01:19.36] |
Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun |
| [01:22.43] |
Get my lantern |
| [01:24.08] |
Get my gun |
| [01:25.70] |
Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes |
| [01:34.00] |
Well I paid off the guard and I slipped out a letter |
| [01:37.59] |
To my cousin up in Tennessee |
| [01:42.20] |
Oh and he brought down a blue tick hound |
| [01:45.35] |
She was pretty as she could be |
| [01:49.80] |
Well they penned her up in the swampland |
| [01:53.60] |
'Bout a mile just south of the gate |
| [01:58.54] |
And I'd take Ol' Red for his evening run |
| [02:01.85] |
I'd just drop him off and wait |
| [02:06.00] |
And the warden sang |
| [02:07.45] |
Come on somebody |
| [02:08.90] |
Why don't you run |
| [02:10.51] |
Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun |
| [02:13.70] |
Get my lantern |
| [02:15.30] |
Get my gun |
| [02:16.97] |
Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes |
| [02:31.10] |
Now Ol' Red got real used to seeing |
| [02:35.47] |
His lady every night |
| [02:40.07] |
And so I kept him away for three or four days |
| [02:43.74] |
And waited till the time got right |
| [02:47.70] |
Well I made my run with the evenin' sun |
| [02:51.40] |
And I smiled when I heard 'em let Red out |
| [02:56.10] |
'Cause I was headed north to Tennessee |
| [02:58.56] |
And Ol' Red was headed south |
| [03:03.55] |
And the warden sang |
| [03:04.73] |
Come on somebody |
| [03:06.15] |
Why don't you run |
| [03:07.84] |
Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun |
| [03:10.95] |
Get my lantern |
| [03:12.51] |
Get my gun |
| [03:14.22] |
Red'll have you treed before the mornin' come |
| [03:19.00] |
Now there's red haired blue ticks all in the South |
| [03:24.40] |
Love got me in here and love got me out |
