The Race Horse

Run, oh Molly run, run, oh Molly run
Tenbrooks gonna beat you, bright shinin' sun
To the bright shinin' sun, oh 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, oh 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, oh Lord, strainin' every nerve
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
Kyper, Kyper, you’re not a-ridin' right
Molly’s beatin' 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
The womens all a-laughin', the children all a-cryin'
Mens all a-hollerin', old Tenbrooks a-flyin'
Old Tenbrooks a-flyin', oh Lord, old Tenbrooks a-flyin'
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
Let old Tenbrooks run, oh Lord, let old Tenbrooks run
