《Ol’ Red》歌词

[00:00:01] Ol' Red - George Jones

[00:00:15] Caught my wife with another man

[00:00:19] Now I'm doin' ninety-nine

[00:00:23] At a prison down in Georgia

[00:00:26] Close to the Florida line

[00:00:30] I've been here for twelve long years

[00:00:32] And I finally made the warder my friend

[00:00:37] So he sentenced me to a life of ease

[00:00:41] Takin' care of ol' Red

[00:00:45] Now ol' red he's a dangerous dog

[00:00:48] This old boy has ever seen

[00:00:52] He's got a nose that can smell a two day trail

[00:00:56] Lord he's a four legged tracking machine

[00:00:59] Just consider yourself mighty lucky

[00:01:02] To get past the gators and the quicksand beds

[00:01:08] But all these years that I've been here

[00:01:10] Ain't nobody got past Red

[00:01:15] Hear the warder say

[00:01:15] Come on somebody why don't you run

[00:01:18] Ol' Red's a-itchin' to have a little fun

[00:01:22] Get my latern get my gun

[00:01:25] Red'll have 'em treed 'fore the mornin' sun

[00:01:37] I payed off a guard and he slipped out a letter

[00:01:39] To my cousin in Tennessee

[00:01:44] And he brought down me a blue tick hound

[00:01:47] Lord she was pretty as she could be

[00:01:51] They penned her up in the swampland

[00:01:54] About a mile just south of the gate

[00:01:58] And when I take ol' Red for his evening run

[00:02:01] And I'd just drop him off and wait

[00:02:05] Hear the warder say

[00:02:07] Come on somebody why don't you run

[00:02:10] Ol' Red's a-itchin' to have a little fun

[00:02:13] Get my latern get my gun

[00:02:16] Red'll have 'em treed 'fore the mornin' sun

[00:02:27] Now old red got use to seein'

[00:02:30] This little lady there every night

[00:02:35] So I kept him away for three or fours days

[00:02:38] And waited till the time got right

[00:02:42] I made my run with the evening sun

[00:02:44] And I smiled when I heard 'em let him out

[00:02:49] 'Cause I headed north to Tennessee

[00:02:52] And ol' Red was a-headed south

[00:02:56] I hear the warder say

[00:02:57] Come on somebody why don't you run

[00:03:00] Ol' Red's a-itchin' to have a little fun

[00:03:03] Get my latern get my gun

[00:03:07] Red'll have 'em treed 'fore the mornin' sun

[00:03:15] Now there's red hair blue ticks dogs in the south

[00:03:19] Love got me in there and love got me out
