Ol' Red (the Voice Performance) Lyrics - Zach Bridges

hey 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 I'd been here for 2 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 he's the damnedest dog that I've ever seen 

Got a nose that can smell a two day trail 

He's 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 I've been here 

Ain't nobody got past Red

And the warden sang 

Come on somebody 

Why don't you run 

Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun 

Get my lantern 

Get my gun 

Red'll 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 I'd take Ol' Red for his evening run 

I'd just drop him off and wait

Come on somebody

Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun 

Get my lantern 

Get my gun 

Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes 

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 turn Red out 

'Cause I was headed north to Tennessee 

And Ol' Red was headed south 

And the warden sang 

Come on somebody 

Why don't you run 

Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun 

Get my lantern 

Get my gun 

Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes 

Now there's red haired blue ticks all in the South 

Love got me in here and love got me out
