Little Red Rider


written by Michael Nesmith



Little Red Rider ride on the railroad, and she cried
Little Red Rider ride on the railroad, waved goodbye
So long sunshine, ride away
I know you'll come back someday
And light my life

Little Miss Red's asleep on the railroad, there she goes
Little Miss Red's asleep on the railroad, no one knows
That Little Miss Red is Little Miss Blue
And she looks a lot like you
Around the eyes

Nobody was home in town
Oh, nobody was home in town
Nobody was home in the town I called home
Somebody said they all had drowned

Bye bye sweet miss, give me one kiss and then I'll go
Bye bye sweet miss, give me one kiss, don't let it show
Then turn your brown eyes to the wall
Was that message there before
You were so wise

Bye bye sweet miss, give me one kiss and then I'll go
Bye bye sweet miss, give me one kiss, don't let it show
Then turn your brown eyes to the wall
Was that message there before
You were so wise
