Ol' Red - George Jones[00:00:01]
Caught my wife with another man[00:00:15]
Now I'm doin' ninety-nine[00:00:19]
At a prison down in Georgia[00:00:23]
Close to the Florida line [00:00:26]
I've been here for twelve long years[00:00:30]
And I finally made the warder my friend[00:00:32]
So he sentenced me to a life of ease[00:00:37]
Takin' care of ol' Red [00:00:41]
Now ol' red he's a dangerous dog[00:00:45]
This old boy has ever seen[00:00:48]
He's got a nose that can smell a two day trail[00:00:52]
Lord he's a four legged tracking machine [00:00:56]
Just consider yourself mighty lucky[00:00:59]
To get past the gators and the quicksand beds[00:01:02]
But all these years that I've been here[00:01:08]
Ain't nobody got past Red [00:01:10]
Hear the warder say [00:01:15]
Come on somebody why don't you run[00:01:15]
Ol' Red's a-itchin' to have a little fun[00:01:18]
Get my latern get my gun[00:01:22]
Red'll have 'em treed 'fore the mornin' sun [00:01:25]
I payed off a guard and he slipped out a letter[00:01:37]
To my cousin in Tennessee[00:01:39]
And he brought down me a blue tick hound[00:01:44]
Lord she was pretty as she could be [00:01:47]
They penned her up in the swampland[00:01:51]
About a mile just south of the gate[00:01:54]
And when I take ol' Red for his evening run[00:01:58]
And I'd just drop him off and wait [00:02:01]
Hear the warder say [00:02:05]
Come on somebody why don't you run[00:02:07]
Ol' Red's a-itchin' to have a little fun[00:02:10]
Get my latern get my gun[00:02:13]
Red'll have 'em treed 'fore the mornin' sun [00:02:16]
Now old red got use to seein'[00:02:27]
This little lady there every night[00:02:30]
So I kept him away for three or fours days[00:02:35]
And waited till the time got right [00:02:38]
I made my run with the evening sun[00:02:42]
And I smiled when I heard 'em let him out[00:02:44]
'Cause I headed north to Tennessee[00:02:49]
And ol' Red was a-headed south [00:02:52]
I hear the warder say [00:02:56]
Come on somebody why don't you run[00:02:57]
Ol' Red's a-itchin' to have a little fun[00:03:00]
Get my latern get my gun[00:03:03]
Red'll have 'em treed 'fore the mornin' sun [00:03:07]
Now there's red hair blue ticks dogs in the south[00:03:15]
Love got me in there and love got me out[00:03:19]
