IDA Red

IDA Red - Merle Haggard

Lights in the parlor fires in the grate

Clock on the mantle says it's getting late

Curtains on the window snowy white

Then forget comeback on Sunday night

Ida red Ida red

I'm a plumb fool 'bout Ida red

Chicken in the bread bin pecking out dough

Granny will ya 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 'bout Ida red

My old missus swore to me

When she died shed set me free

Lived so long her head got bald

Took a notion not to die at all

Ida red Ida red

I'm a plumb fool 'bout Ida red
