 Ida Red (Asleep at the Wheel)

 Lights in the parlor, farâ in the grate

 Clock on the mantle says itâs a gettinâ late

 Curtain in the window, snowy white

 Parlorâs pleasant on a Sunday night

 

 Ida Red, Ida Red, Iâm plum fool about Ida Red

 Ida Red, Ida Red, Iâm plum fool about Ida Red

 (Ah now...that olâ piano·yea·)

 

 Lamps on the table, pictures on the wall 

 Iâm pretty sober and that ainât all

 If Iâm not mistaken I shoreâ am right

 Aâ somebody else in the parlor tonight

 

 Chorus

 (Ahh ·yea)

 

 Chicken in the breadpan peckinâ out dough

 Granny will your dog bite? No chilâ no

 Hurry up boys now and donât be slow

 You ainât a goinâ anâ you was awhile ago

 

 Chorus

 

 Now my olâ mistress promised me

 That when she died sheâd set me free

 She lived so long that her head got bald

 Takenâ the notion not to die at all

 

 Chorus

 (Ah them little mandolins·

 The biggest little instruments in the world·yea·)

 

 Lights burninâ dim, farâs a gettinâ low

 Somebody says itâs time to go

 I hear a whisper gentle and light

 Donât forget to come back Saturday night

 

 Chorus
