Molly and Tenbrooks - Marley's Ghost

Run, old Molly, run!

Run, old Molly, run!

Tenbrooks gonna beat you in the bright shining sun

Bright shining sun, oh Lord, bright shining sun

Tenbrooks was a big bay horse, he wore that shaggy mane

Run all round Memphis, he beat the Memphis train

Beat the Memphis train, oh Lord, beat the Memphis train

Tenbrooks said to Molly, «What make your head so red?»

«Running in the hot sun with fever in my head

Fever in my head, oh Lord, fever in my head.

«Tenbrooks said to Molly, «You're looking mighty squirreled»

Molly said to Tenbrooks, іI№m a-leaving this old world

Leaving this old world, oh Lord, leaving 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, oh Lord, beat with all ease

Women all a-laughing, children all a-crying

Mens all a-hollering, and old Tenbrooks a-flying

Old Tenbrooks a-flying, oh Lord, old Tenbrooks a-flying

Kuyper, Kuyper, Kuyper, my son

Give old Tenbrooks the bridle and let old Tenbrooks run

Let old Tenbrooks run, oh Lord, let old Tenbrooks run

Gonna catch old Tenbrooks and hitch him in the shade

Gonna bury Molly in a coffin ready made

Coffin ready made, oh Lord, coffin ready made
