Intro
D# C# G#
[Verse 1]
D#
Well, I caught my wife with another man
C# G# D#
And it cost me ninety-nine
D#
On a prison farm in Georgia
A#7
Close to the Florida line
D#
Well, I’ve been here for two long years
C# G# D#
I finally made the warden my friend
D#
And so he sentenced me to a life of ease
A#7 D#
Taking care of Ol’ Red
[Verse 2]
D#
Now Ol’ Red he’s the damndest dog
C# G# D#
That I’ve ever seen
D#
Got a nose that can smell a two day trail
A#7
He’s a four legged tracking machine
D#
You can consider yourself mighty lucky to get past
C# G# D#
The gators and the quicksand beds
D#
But all these years that I been here
A#7 D#
Ain’t nobody got past Red
[Chorus]
D#
And the warden sang,
D#7 D# D#7 D#
Come on somebody, why don’t you run
D#7 D# C# D#
Ol’ Red’s itchin’ to have a little fun
D#7 D# D#7 D#
Get my lantern, get my gun
D#7 D# C# D#
Red’ll have you treed ‘fore the morning comes
[Instrumental]
D# C# G#
[Verse 3]
D#
Well, I paid off the guard and I slipped out a letter
C# G# D#
To my cousin up in Tennessee
D#
Oh, and he brought down a blue tick hound
A#7
She was pretty as she could be
D#
Well, they penned her up in the swampland
C# G# D#
About a mile just south of the gate
D#
And I’d take Ol’ Red for his evening run
A#7 D#
I’d just drop him off and wait
[Chorus]
D#
And the warden sang,
D#7 D# D#7 D#
Come on somebody, why don’t you run
D#7 D# C# D#
Ol’ Red’s itchin’ to have a little fun
D#7 D# D#7 D#
Get my lantern, get my gun
D#7 D# C# D#
Red’ll have you treed ‘fore the morning comes
[Instrumental]
D# C# G# x2
[Verse 4]
D# C# G# D#
Now Ol’ Red got real used to seeing his lady every night
D#
And so I kept him away for three or four days
A#7
And waited 'til the time got right
D#
Well, I made my run with the evening sun
C# G# D#
And I smiled when I heard ‘em turn Red out
D#
Cause I was headed north to Tennessee
A#7 D#
And Ol’ Red was headed south
[Chorus]
D#
And the warden sang,
D#7 D# D#7 D#
Come on somebody, why don’t you run
D#7 D# C# D#
Ol’ Red’s itchin’ to have a little fun
D#7 D# D#7 D#
Get my lantern, get my gun
D#7 D# C# D#
Red’ll have you treed ‘fore the morning comes
[Outro]
D#
Now there’s red-haired blue ticks all in the south
D# A#7 D#
Love got me in here and love got me out
