The Race Horse Song - Bill Monroe

Written by：DR

Run oh Molly run

Run oh 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 that shaggy mane

He run all around Memphis

He beat the Memphis train

Beat the Memphis train

Oh lord beat the Memphis train

Tenbrooks said to Molly

What makes your head so red

Running in the hot sun

Puts 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 a leaving this old world

Leaving this old world

Oh lord leaving this old world

Out in California

Where Molly done as she pleased

Come back to old Kentucky

Got beat with all ease

Beat with all ease

Oh lord beat with all ease

The women all a laughing

The children all a crying

The men all a hollering

Old Tenbrooks a flying

Old Tenbrooks a flying

Oh lord old Tenbrooks a flying

Kyper Kyper you're not a riding right

Molly's beating old Tenbrooks

Clear out of sight

Clear out of sight

Oh lord clear out of sight

Kyper Kyper Kyper my son

Give old Tenbrooks the bridle

Let old Tenbrooks run

Let old Tenbrooks run

Oh lord let old Tenbrooks run

Go and catch old Tenbrooks

And hitch him in the shade

We're gonna bury old Molly

In a coffin ready made

Coffin ready made

Oh lord coffin ready made
