Testo Run Red Run - The Coasters

Testo della canzone Run Red Run (The Coasters), tratta dall'album Searchin'

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 gonna shoot you dead

Because I know darn well you been a cheat"

Well a-run, Red, run, 'cause he's got your gun

And he's aiming it at your head

Run, Red, run, 'cause he's got your gun

And he's aiming it at your head

You 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

Like a P-80 Sabre jet

He zoomed around the corner and he disappeared

And everybody started to bet

The race was on, you know the chase was on

That Red he sure could run

But let me tell you sport, don't sell that monkey short

'Cause he's a traveling son of a gun

Well a-run, Red, run, 'cause he's got your gun

And he's aiming it at your head

Run, Red, run, 'cause he's got your gun

And he's aiming it at your head

You better get up and wail, you better move your tail

Before he fills it up full of lead

The monkey trapped Red in a parking lot

Down along the avenue

The monkey said, "Red, you made a man out of me

Now I'm gonna make a monkey out of you

Give me your car keys and give me your watch

Give 'em to me or I'll shoot

I'm gonna put on your brand new Stetson hat

And go to town in your new brown suit"

Well a-run, Red, run, 'cause he's got your gun

And he's aiming it at your head

Run, Red, run, 'cause he's got your gun

And he's aiming it at your head

You better get up and wail, you better move your tail

Before he fills it up full of lead
