1)Old Red was one of the orn'-ry-est yet 
      D                   A7           
  I'd seen at the big rode-o 
       D                         G         
  He'd bite you and kick you and stomp out your life 
  A7                     D          
  Old Red had never been rode. 
 
  D                G          
2)Meaner than sin - wild as the wind 
       D                   A7          
  That blew on the Montana plains 
  D                      D              
  Old Red was one of the last of his breed 
     A7               D           
  Was-n't about to be tamed. 
 
  G            D     
3)From Idaho a young cowboy came 
     A7                   D      
  To ride in the big rode- o 
                     G        D         
  The young cowboy's name was Billy McLane 
      A7                   D          
  And Billy had never been throwed. 
 
  D               G           D            
4)The greatest de-sire filled young Billy's heart 
     A7                          D          
  To ride this old outlaw called Red 
                  G         D          
  He drew him one day and I heard Billy say 
        A7                    D           
  "I'll ride 'im or drop over dead." 
 
  D           G           D                
5)Old Red was wicked down there in the chute 
        A7                      D          
  He was kickin' and stompin' a-bout 
                G        D            
  Billy climbed into the saddle with ease 
       A7                               D           
  Then yelled: "Turn 'im loose - let us out." 
 
  G                         D      
6)Old Red came out with his head on the ground 
      A7                            D           
  His back hooves were touchin' his nose 
                G          D          
  Tryin' to get rid of the man on his back 
          A7                     D           
  But the man went wherever he'd go. 
 
  D           G           D                
7)Billy was rakin' Old Red with his spurs 
        A7                      D           
  From his tail - to the tip of his chin 
                G        D              
  He was doin' right well - but Billy could tell 
       A7                               D        
  This outlaw would never give in. 
  D           G           D              
8)Old Red was runnin' straight for the fence 
        A7                      D         
  Suddenly stoppin' and then 
                G        D              
  He reared on his hind legs and fell on his back 
       A7                               D      
  Takin' poor Billy with him. 
  G                         D      
9)There was a hush in the crowd and they knew 
      A7                            D      
  This would be Billy's last ride 
                G          D          
  The saddle horn crushed Billy's chest when they fell 
          A7                     D         
  And under Old Red Billy died. 
   D               G           D            
10)Old Red lay still - no more would he move 
     A7                          D         
   The cowboys that seen it - could tell 
                  G         D             
   In tryin' to throw Billy off of his back 
        A7                    D           
   Old Red broke his neck when he fell. 
    G                         D      
11)Out in the west - is the place where they rest 
      A7                            D      
   This cowboy that never was throwed 
                G          D          
   And one foot away - resting there 'neath the clay 
           A7                     D           
   Is the - outlaw -- that -- never --- was --- rode.
