lyrics
Run ol' Molly run, run ol' Molly run
Tenbrooks gonna beat you, to the bright shining sun
To the bright shining sun, oh, Lord, to the bright shining sun
Tenbrooks was a big bay horse, he wore a shaggy mane
He ran all 'round Memphis, and he beat the Memphis train
Beat the Memphis train, oh, Lord beat the Memphis train
Tenbrooks said to Molly, what makes your hair so red?
Running in the hot sun with a fever in my head
Fever in my head, oh, Lord, fever in my head
Molly said to Tenbrooks, you're looking mighty squirrel
Tenbrooks said to Molly, I'm leaving this old world
Leaving this old world, oh, Lord, leaving this old world
Out in California, where Molly done as she pleased
She came back to old Kentucky, got beat with all ease
Beat with all ease, oh, Lord, beat with all ease
Women's all a-laughin', children's all a-cryin'
Men folks all a-hollin', ol' Tenbrooks a-flyin'
Ol' Tenbrooks a-flyin', oh, Lord, ol' Tenbrooks a-flyin'
Kyper, Kyper, you're not a-ridin' right
Molly's beatin' old Tenbrooks clear out of sight
Clear out of sight, oh, Lord, clear out of sight
Kyper, Kyper, Kyper my son
Give ol' Tenbrooks the bridle, let ol' Tenbrooks run
Let ol' Tenbrooks run, oh, Lord, let ol' Tenbrooks run
Go a-catch ol' Tenbrooks and hitch him in the shade
We're gonna bury ol' Molly, the coffin's ready-made
Coffin's ready-made, oh, Lord, the coffin's ready-made
Let ol' Tenbrooks run, oh, Lord, let ol' Tenbrooks run
