Run Red Run

Tony36

Run Red run

The wolf is on the prowl 

He's gonna stalk you

He's gonna chase you

Until he has you in his claws

 

Run Red run 

The forest is no longer safe

Go home

Stay home

Or become the wolf's bait

 

Run Red run

The fairytale is over

The woodsman's dead

The wolf is coming 

Run my little redhooded friend

            Nicely done, Tony. A fine write. I don't know why but this gave me Creedence Clearwater Revival vibes. Maybe a bit Bad Moon Rising. 🙂

              Thank you, I never thought about it, but after rereading it. I can understand the CCR reference
