作曲：Nick Woods/Vivian Holtzman/Scott Holtzman

One Two Three Four

In from a circle Indian style

Ida in the middle and the kids go wild

Ida Red Ida Red

We're in love with Ida Red

Heading down to Chanty Creek

Hide your eyes and we won't peek

Do-sa-do in the big barn dance

There ain't no gal that's got a chance

Drinking corn and salty dogs

Chasing through them soggy bogs

Clucking in the hen house I don't care

Chasing out is free and fair

Fair-thee-well Penny Lou fair-thee-well I say

Ain't nobody chasing you

We're in love with Ida Red

Ida Red Ida Red We're in love with Ida Red

She's gonna lead and we're gonna follow

Baying like a hound down through the fowler

Run run fast as you can

She can out run a hog on land

She can swim and she can climb

Ida's making double time

I scream promenade

Get that gal and promenade

All the boys from miles around follow her from town to town

Round the tree and back again

We can't lose and she can't win

Do-sa-do knock my toes swing from the middle and I don't know

Follow that girl in a hollow log

You'll wind up kissing an old ground hog

Fair-thee-well Chancy Ann fair-thee-well I say

We're gonna catch her if we can

We're in love with Ida Red

Ida Red Ida Red we're in love with Ida Red

Yippie Come on now

Swing me high and swing me low

Swing through the middle with the back hand row

Swing me up and swing me down

Chasing out around the town

Fair-thee-well mother dear fair-thee-well I say

We get back some time next years

We'll be chasing Ida Red

Ida Red Ida Red We're in love with I-da Red
