    "Ol Red'' By Blake Shelton

    I love that song! Here are the lyrics:

    Well I caught my wife with another man

    And it cost me ninety nine

    On a prison farm in Georgia

    Close to the Florida line

    Well I'd been here for two long years

    I finally made the warden my friend

    And so he sentenced me to a life of ease

    Taking care of Ol Red

    Now Ol' Red he's the damnedest dog that I've ever seen

    Got a nose that can smell a two day trail

    He's a four legged tracking machine

    You can consider yourself mighty lucky

    To get past the gators and the quicksand beds

    But all these years that I've been here

    Ain't nobody got past Red

    And the warden sang

    Come on somebody

    Why don't you run

    Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun

    Get my lantern

    Get my gun

    Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes

    Well I paid off the guard and I slipped out a letter

    To my cousin up in Tennessee

    Oh and he brought down a blue tick hound

    She was pretty as she could be

    Well they penned her up in the swampland

    'Bout a mile just south of the gate

    And I'd take Ol' Red for his evening run

    I'd just drop him off and wait

    And the warden sang

    Come on somebody

    Why don't you run

    Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun

    Get my lantern

    Get my gun

    Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes

    Now Ol' Red got real used to seeing

    His lady every night

    And so I kept him away for three or four days

    And waited till the time got right

    Well I made my run with the evenin' sun

    And I smiled when I heard 'em let Red out

    'Cause I was headed north to Tennessee

    And Ol' Red was headed south

    And the warden sang

    Come on somebody

    Why don't you run

    Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun

    Get my lantern

    Get my gun

    Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes

    Now there's red haired blue ticks all in the South

    Love got me in here and love got me out
