Lyrics:


Floating verses sung to Ida Red:

Down the road, down the road;
Can't get a letter from down the road.

Down the road, across the creek,
Can't get a letter but once a week.

Ida Red and Ida Blue,
I got stuck on Ida too.

Ida Red, she lives in town,
She weighs three hundred and forty pounds.

Ida Red, she won't do right,
She won't do nothing but quarell and fight.

Down the road a mile and half,
My little honey looks back and laughs.

Down the road and across the creek,
Can't get a letter but once a week.

Ida Red, she's a darned old fool,
Tried to put a saddle on a hump-back mule.
