Ida Red (2023)

[Verse 1]
Light in the parlor, fire in the grate
Clock on the mantle says it's getting late
Curtains on the window, snowy white
The parlor is pleasant on Sunday night

[Chorus]
Ida Red, Ida Red
I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

[Verse 2]
Lamp on the table, picture on the wall
There's a pretty sofa and that's not all
If I'm not mistaken and I'm sure I'm right
There's somebody else in the parlor tonight

[Chorus]
Ida Red, Ida Red
I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

[Verse 3]
Chicken in the bread pan, 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

[Chorus]
Ida Red, Ida Red
I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

[Verse 4]
My old mistrеss swore to me
When shе died and set me free
She lived so long her head got bald
She took the notion not to die at all

[Chorus]
Ida Red, Ida Red
I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

[Verse 5]
Light in the parlor, fire in the grate
Clock on the mantle says it's getting late
Curtains on the window, snowy white
The parlor is pleasant on Sunday night

[Chorus]
Ida Red, Ida Red
I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

[Verse 6]
Lamp on the table, picture on the wall
There's a pretty sofa and that's not all
If I'm not mistaken and I'm sure I'm right
There's somebody else in the parlor tonight

[Chorus]
Ida Red, Ida Red
I'm a plumb fool about Ida Red

[Outro]
