Run, oh Molly run, run, oh Molly run

See old Tenbrooks runnin', he's strainin' every nerve
Strainin' every nerve, oh Lord, strainin' every nerveOut in California where Molly done as she pleased
Come back to old Kentucky, got beat with all ease

Clear out of sight, oh Lord, clear out of sightKyper, Kyper, Kyper my son
Give old Tenbrooks the bridle, let old Tenbrooks run
Let old Tenbrooks run, oh Lord, let old Tenbrooks runThe 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
