James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Lyric

Get Off That Ole Red Wagon- -

Get off that ole red wagon;
Get off that ole red wagon;
Girl, git off that ole red wagon;
But down that bottle, 
Don’t want just ice water;
And yet still don’t want no alcohol;
Get off that ole red wagon
Now why you wanna do that to me;
The times I wanna get next to you you flee;
You are one of the very few girls whom comes down with a flu;
Every single time I trying to git next to you;
Get off that ole red wagon;
Get off that ole red wagon;
Girl, git off that ole red wagon; 
But down that bottle, 
Don’t want just ice water;
And yet still don’t want no alcohol;
So girl get off that ole red wagon;
Why you wanna do that to me;
But down that bottle so you can be free;
