Ridin' ole Paint, and leadin' ole Ball,

voiceColl. by Mary Jo Davis For M. C. Parler Sung by Mrs. W. M. Klinger DeValls Bluff, Ark. June 9, 1954 Reel 190 Item 6 Leadin' Ole Paint I'm mighty tired of single w ife, I'll find some one to be my wife, I'm goin' out where the sun shines every day, I'll get me a herd, and start me a brand, I'm goin' out west where a man's a man, Ridin' ole Paint, and leadin' ole Ball. Refrain: Ridin' ole Paint, and leadin' ole Ball, I ain't gonna work this comin' fall, I'm goin' where the sun shines every day, I'll get me a herd and start me a brand, I'm goin' out west where a man's a man, Ridin' ole Paint, and leadin' ole Ball. Every night when the work is through, We'll go riding, just we two, Down the lane, where the sun shines every day, Every night beneath the star, I'll strum my tune on the old guitar, Ridin' ole Paint, and leadin' ole Ball.
