Ida Reyd - Bob Wills / His Texas Playboys

Lights in the parlor fires in the grate

Clock on the mantle says its getting late

Curtains on the window snowy white

The parlors pleasant on Sunday night

Ida Red Ida Red

I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

Lamp on the table picture on the wall

There's a pretty sofa and that's not all

I'm not mistaken and I'm sure I'm right

Somebody else in the parlor tonight

Ida Red Ida Red

I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

Chicken in the bread bin pecking out dough

Granny will you dog bite no child no

Hurry up boys and don't fool around

Grab your partner and truck on down

Ida Red Ida Red

I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

Lights a burning dim fire's a getting low

Somebody says it's time to go

I hear the whisper gentle and light

Don't forget to come next Sunday night

Ida Red Ida Red

I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red
