Redhead

Momma was a hot head, daddy was a redneck
 Grew up in a single wide when Reagan was president
 Spoonin' in a twin size, newlywed business
 Didn't know they gonna have themselves a little redhead
 Nine months from Valentine's, blamed it on the red wine
 Bought a station wagon, stopped runnin' all the red lights
 Big eyes, bigger mouth, wild child complex
 They didn't have a clue how to raise a little redhead
 Oh, they got their hands full, tryin' to tame a pistol
 Spitfire, freckles that could run among the dead
 Clothes line, tightrope, daredevil, high hopes
 They raised a little hell when they raised a little redhead
 Now tell us how it is, uh-hum
 Living with a sunburn, running with scissors
 Daddy's belt couldn't help simmer down the temper
 Bull in a china shop, rose-colored reckless
 Tried to run away, but trouble loves a little redhead
 Oh, they got their hands full, tryin' to tame a pistol
 Spitfire, freckles that could run among the dead
 Clothes line, tightropes, daredevil, high hopes
 They raised a little hell when they raised a little redhead, mm

 Oh, they got their hands full, tryin' to tame a pistol
 Spitfire, freckles that could run among the dead
 Clothes line, tightropes, daredevil, high hopes
 They raised a little hell when they raised a little redhead
 God made the blondes, black-haired, and the brunettes
 Devil dropped in said, "I don't think you're done yet"
 Let's make a compromise, make an angel backslide
 So they chipped in, and they made a little redhead
