Kenneth Little Red Hayes (Larry W. Jones 09/23/2007) (song#5004)

All the cowboys rode in from far away
To the big barn dance where the fiddler played
And when the caller called out, bend the bow
Kenneth "Little Red" Hayes was hot to go

Down by the river when the sun went down
At the barn dance a little ways from town
"Little Red" Hayes played the best western swing
His fiddle wouldn't rest, he made it sing

Cherokee Cowboys played Silver Lake Blues
And "Little Red" Hayes never took a snooze
He resined his bow for Billy Bayou
He could really play the fiddle so true

Down by the river when the sun went down
At the barn dance a little ways from town
"Little Red" Hayes played the best western swing
His fiddle wouldn't rest, he made it sing

Now, one of these days it will come, I know
Ken "Little Red" Hayes will hang up his bow
But he's already set the scene ablaze
We've never seen none like Little Red Hayes

Down by the river when the sun went down
At the barn dance a little ways from town
"Little Red" Hayes played the best western swing
His fiddle wouldn't rest, he made it sing
