Ol Red — текст песни (Blake Shelton)





Written by mark sherrill, don goodman & james "bo" bohan







Well I caught my wife with another man

And it cost me ninety nine

On a prison farm in georgia

Close to the florida line

Well Id been here for two long years

I finally made the warden my friend

And so he sentenced me to a life of ease

Taking care of ol red



Now ol red hes the damnedest dog that Ive ever seen

Got a nose that can smell a two day trail

Hes a four legged tracking machine

You can consider yourself mighty lucky

To get past the gators and the quicksand beds

But all these years that Ive been here

Aint nobody got past red



(chorus)

And the warden sang

Come on somebody

Why dont you run

Ol reds itchin to have a little fun

Get my lantern

Get my gun

Redll have you treed before the mornin comes



Well I paid off the guard and I slipped out a letter

To my cousin up in tennessee

Oh and he brought down a blue tick hound

She was pretty as she could be

Well they penned her up in the swampland

bout a mile just south of the gate

And Id take ol red for his evening run

Id just drop him off and wait



Repeat chorus



Now ol red got real used to seeing

His lady every night

And so I kept him away for three or four days

And waited till the time got right

Well I made my run with the evenin sun

And I smiled when I heard em let red out

cause I was headed north to tennessee

And ol red was headed south



Repeat chorus



Now theres red haired blue ticks all in the south

Love got me in here and love got me out
