Recorded by Bob Will
C
Lights in the parlor fires in the grate
G7 C
Clock on the mantle says its getting late
Curtains on the window snowy white
G7 C
The parlors pleasant on Sunday night
Ida Red Ida Red
G7 C
I'm a plumb fool bout Ida Red
Lamp on the table picture on the wall
G7 C
There's a pretty sofa and that's not all
If I’m not mistaken and I’m sure I’m right
G7 C
There's somebody else in the parlor tonight
Repeat #2
Chicken in the bread bin pecking out dough
G7 C
Granny will ya dog bite no child no
Hurry up boys and don’t fool around
G7 C
Grab your partner and truck on down
Repeat #2
Lights a burning dim fire’s a getting low
G7 C
Somebody says its time to go
I hear the whisper gentle and light
G7 C
Don't forget to come next Sunday night
Repeat #2
My old Missus swore to me
G7 C
When she died shed set me free
She lived so long her head got bald
G7 C
She took a notion not to die at all
Repeat #2
