Run oh Molly run, run oh Molly run Tenbrooks gonna beat you to the bright shinin’ sun 
ref: To the bright shinin’ sun, oh Lord, to the bright shinin’ sun Tenbrooks was a big bay horse he wore that shaggy mane He run all around Memphis, he beat the Memphis train... 
Tenbrooks said to Molly, what makes your head so red 
Runnin’ in the hot sun with a fever in my head... Molly said to Tenbrooks, you’re lookin’ mighty squirrel Tenbrooks said to Molly, I’m a-leavin’ this old world... 
Out in California where Molly done as she pleased 
Come back to old Kentucky, got beat with all ease... The women’s all a-laughin’ the children’s all a-cryin’ The men’s all a-hollerin’, old Tenbrooks a-flyin’... 
Kyper, Kyper you’re not ridin’ right 
Molly’s beatin’ old Tenbrooks, clear out of sight... Kyper, Kyper, Kyper my son Give old Tenbrooks the bridle, let old Tenbrooks run... 
Go and fetch old Tenbrooks and hitch him in the shade We’re gonna bury old Molly in a coffin ready made... file from: www.traditionalmusic.co.uk
