Where The Red Fern Grows
J.R. Carroll
3:44Well I met her I was floating Tahlequah down on the river When we started talking You could feel it getting thicker Tension steady building Could've cut it with a knife Where in the world had she been all my life That little lady had a frightful reputation Beast with many faces Read about her in Revelation But all I see spinning here in front of me Is an Oklahoma good time That don't look like its cheap If she wants to dance Then I guess I'm dancing If she wants to run Then I'll run until I drop But if she wants to make me question Til I'm crazy cin't much that I can do Can't bear to see it stop We showed up to the ballroom We were sipping liquid courage cnd smoking out our brains On these cigarettes we's burning cnd everybody wondered where we'd been It'd been several hours since we reached the rivers end Worry ‘bout yourself now boys We're trying to have some fun We're just getting started and it looks like y'all are done She grabbed me by the hand and walked me out onto the floor Put Turnpike on the jukebox I can't take it anymore So if she wants to dance Then I guess I'm dancing If she wants to run then I'll run until I drop But if she wants to make me question til I'm crazy cin't much that I can do Can't bear to see it stop So if she wants to dance Then I guess I'm dancing If she wants to run then I'll run until I drop But if she wants to make me question til I'm crazy cin't much that I can do Can't bear to see it stop
