oh red went and bought himself

a monkey got him from a pawn shop broker

he taught that monkey how to guzzle beer

and he taught him how to play stud poker

last night they were gambling in the kitchen

the monkey he was taking a beat

the monkey said

red i'm going to shoot you dead

because i know dan well you been a cheat

well run red run

because he's got your gun

and he's aiming it at your head

booty deere run red run

because he's got your gun

and he's aiming it at your head

buckety better get up and wail

you better move your tail

before he fills it up full of lead

oh red jumped up and he started to move
