Molly And Tenbrooks Lyrics

(Bill Monroe)

Run ol' Molly run run ol' Molly run
Tenbrooks gonna beat you to the bright and shinin' sun
To the bright and shinin' sun
Oh Lord, to the bright and shinin' sun.

Tenbrooks was big bad horse he had a shaggy mane
He went all around to Memphis he'd beat the Memphis train
Beat the Memphis train
Oh Lord, beat the Memphis train.

The women all're laughin' the children all're cryin'
The men're a hollerin' ol' Tenbrooks is flyin'
Ol' Tenbrooks is flyin'
Oh Lord, ol' Tenbrooks is flyin'.
