Light the pilot fire in the grate
                    E5
Clock on the mantle says it's gettin' late
A5               A5      D5     D5
Curtains on the window, snowy white
A5                                E5
Fatheret the witless it's Sunday night
       A5        D5
Chor : Ida Red, Ida Red
A5                      E5  A5
I'm a plumb fool 'bout Ida Red

Lamp on the table, picture on the wall
There's a pretty soul and that's not all
If I'm not mistaken and I'm sure I'm right
There's somebody else in the parlour tonight

Chicken in a bread bin pickin' out dough
Granny whatta ya know about Ohio ?
Hurry up boys and don't fool around
Grab your partner and truck on down

My ol' Missus swore to me
When she died she'd set me free
She lived so long her head got bald
She took a notion not to die at all

Lamp on the table, picture on the wall
There's a pretty soul and that's not all
If I'm not mistaken and I'm sure I'm right
There's somebody else in the parlour tonight.
