Ol' Red..for Chris
 
Chris this is the song that I have been tellin' you about..have you seen the video? It makes me smile everytime I see it...

Blake Shelton
Ol' Red

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 two 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

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 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 let 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

Travis Tritt
Modern Day Bonnie and Clyde
Written by - Walt Aldridge amp; James LeBlanc
From - Down the Road I Go

Well it's a long way to Richmond
Rollin' north on 95
With a redhead ridin' shotgun
And a pistol by my side
Tearin' down that highway
Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde

We met at a truckstop
Johnson City, Tennessee
I was gassin' up my Firebird
When I heard her callin' me...mmm hmm
Said, 'Which way are you headed, boy
Do you need some company'

She had me stoppin' at a quick mart
Before we made it out of town
Next thing she was runnin' at me
Tellin' me to lay that hammer down
'Cause there's a man right behind me
Doin' his best to slow me down

Yeah and it's a long way to Richmond
Rollin' north on 95
With a redhead ridin' shotgun
And a pistol by my side
Tearin' down that highway
Like a modern day Bonnie and Clyde

Woo...

Well we pulled up to a motel
In the middle of the night
We were countin' all the money
Smokin' stolen Marlboro lights
Lord we never saw 'em comin'
'Til they read us both our rights

Yeah and it's a long way to Richmond
Rollin' north on 95
With a sheriff right beside me
Pistol pointed at my side
Oh, Lord...such a disappointing ending
For this modern day Bonnie and Clyde
Yeah...

America Will Survive
Hank Williams Jr.
Bocephus Music ? BMI

People think it?s nearly the end of time
Cause we?re together and we?ve drawn the line
Our flag is up, the stock markets down
But we?re all united from the country to the town

We live back in the woods you see
Big city problems never bothered me
But the world has changed and so have I

And America can survive
America will survive

We can plow our fields all day long
We can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
Yea we have toughed it out a time or two
Ain?t to many things these boys and girls can?t do
We grow good ole tomatoes, we got hometown pride

And America can survive
America will survive

Cause you can?t scare us out and you make us run
Cause were them old boys that have freedom
and fun. We say grace and we say ma?am
If they don?t like that, we don?t give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coal mines
The Rocky Mountains and the big city skylines
We can hit back and we?re gonna? be fine

Cause this country can survive
America will survive

I had a good friend in New York City
Never called me by my name, just hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a good businessman
He used to send me pictures of the broadway
nights, I?d send him some of granddaddy Williams
homemade muscadine wine.

He was lost like so many in the terrible strife
we?re all asking God, why oh why
A tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye
That?s an old slogan we?re gonna? revive

Because America can survive
America will survive

Cause you can?t scare us out,
and you can?t make us run
we?re them boys and girls with freedom
and fun. We say grace and we say ma?am
If they don?t like that, we give less than a damn
We?re from North California and South Alabam?
And all they?ve done is unite this whole land
There?s no more Yankees and Rebels this time
But one united people that stand behind

America can survive
America will survive
:a:

Toby Keith

American girls and American guys
Will always stand up and salute
Will always recognize
When we see Old Glory flying
There's a lot of men dead
So we can sleep in peace at night
When we lay down our head

My Daddy served in the army
Where he lost his right eye
But he flew a flag out in our yard
Till the day that he died
He wanted my Mother, my Brother,
My Sister and me
To grow up and live happy
In the land of the free

Now this nation that I love
Is falling under attack
A mighty sucker punch came flying in
From somewhere in the back
As soon as we could see clearly
Through our big black eye
Man we lit up your world
Like the Fourth of July

Chorus:
Hey, Uncle Sam put your name
At the top of his list
And the Statue of Liberty
Started shaking her fist
And the eagle will fly
And it's going to be hell
When you hear Mother Freedom
Start ringing her bell
And it will feel like the whole wide world
Is raining down on you
Brought to you courtesy
Of the Red, White and Blue

Oh, justice will be served
And the battle will rage
This big dog will fight
When you rattle his cage
You'll be sorry that you messed
With the U.S. of A.
Cause we'll put a boot in your ass
It's the American way

CHORUS

Of the Red, White and Blue
Of my Red, White and Blue

Does Anyone Remember?
 
Remember the words to the Hank Williams song.

She's got me how'l at the moon.

I thought it was humorous.

Keith ;)
