Run O Molly run, run O Molly run Tenbrooks gonna beat you to the bright shinin' sun. To the bright shinin' sun O Lord to the bright shinin' 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 O Lord beat the Memphis train See that train a-comin' it's comin' round the curve See old Tenbrooks runnin' he's strainin' every nerve Strainin' every nerve O Lord strainin' every nerve Tenbrooks said to Molly what makes your head so red? Runnin' in the hot sun puts fever in my head Fever in my head O Lord fever in my head Molly said to Tenbrooks you're lookin' mighty squirrel Tenbrooks said to Molly I'm a-leavin' this old world Leavin' this old world O Lord leavin' 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 O Lord beat with all ease The women all a-laughin' the child'n all a cryin' The men all a-hollerin' old Tenbrooks a-flyin' Old Tenbrooks a-flyin' O Lord old Tenbrooks a-flyin' Kyper Kyper you're not A-ridin' right Molly's beatin' old Tenbrooks clear out sight Clear out of sight O Lord clear out of sight Kyper Kyper Kyper my son Give old Tenbrooks the bridle let old Tenbrooks run Let old Tenbrooks run O 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 O Lord coffin ready made
