Текст песни Unknown - Molly And Tenbrooks

Molly and Tenbrooks
(Steve Gillette and Linda Albertano)

Tenbrooks was a bay horse, had a long, shaggy mane
Rode all around Memphis, beat the big Memphis train
Run, Tenbrooks, run, if you don't run
Molly gonna beat you to the bright shinin' sun

The women were weepin', their babes cryin' too
The nine proud horses came thunderin' through
With molly the leader, her head tossin' high
With Molly the leader, with Tenbrooks behind,
She came flyin' by

We shouted to Kuyper, you're not ridin' right
Molly is a beatin' Tembrooks out of sight
Kuyper, oh Kuyper, Kuyper my son,
Give him the bridle, let Tenbrooks run

Tenbrooks looked at Molly, your face is so red
Been runnin in the hot sun with a feverish head
You're fallin' behind me, I'm out here all alone
Molly says to Tenbrooks, I'm leavin' this world
I'm a goin' on home

Oh, run fetch old Tenbrooks and tie him in the shade
They're buryin' Molly in a coffin ready made
Out in California Molly done as she pleased,
Back in Kentucky, got beat with all ease,
Got beat with all ease
