E
Well I caught my wife with another man
     D    A    E
And it cost me ninety-nine
E
On a prison farm in Georgia
              B
Close to the Florida line
E
Well I've been here for two long years
D            A      E
I finally made the warden my friend
E
And so he sentenced me to a life of ease
B            E
Taking care of Ol' Red

E
Now Ol' Red he's the damndest dog
   D   A   E
That I've ever seen
E
Got a nose that can smell a two day trail
             B
He's a four legged tracking machine
E
You can consider yourself mighty lucky to get past
D         A         E
The gators and the quicksand beds
B                     E
But all these years that I been here
E
Ain't nobody got past Red

Chorus:
E
And the warden sang,
E7       E  E7         E
Come on somebody why don't you run
E7      E      B         E
Ol' Red's itchin to have a little fun
E7    E     E7   E
Get my lantern, get my gun
E7           E         B     E
Red'll have you treed ?fore the morning comes

E                D A

E
Well I paid off the guard and I slipped out a letter
D    A     E
To my cousin up in Tennessee
E
Oh and he brought down a blue tick hound
                   B
She was pretty as she could be
E
Well the penned her up in the swampland
D           A        E
About a mile just south of the gate
E
And I'd take Ol' Red for his evening run
B                 E
I'd just drop him off and wait

E
And the warden sang,
E7       E  E7         E
Come on somebody why don't you run
E7      E      B         E
Ol' Red's itchin to have a little fun
E7    E     E7   E
Get my lantern, get my gun
E7           E         B     E
Red'll have you treed ?fore the morning comes

E    D A

E
Now Ol' Red got real used to seeing
D     A        E
His lady every night
E                  E7
And so I kept him away for three or four days
E
E       B
And waited til the time got right
E
Well I made my run with the evening sun
D        A                   E
And I smiled when I heard ?em turn Red out
E
Cause I was headed north to Tennessee
And Ol' Red was headed south

E
And the warden sang,
E7       E  E7         E
Come on somebody why don't you run
E7      E      B         E
Ol' Red's itchin to have a little fun
E7    E     E7   E
Get my lantern, get my gun
E7           E         B     E
Red'll have you treed ?fore the morning comes

E      D A


E
Now there's red hair blue ticks all in the south
E                B       E
Love got me in here and love got me out
