[Instrumental intro] Little red, hey little red Where have you been Walking down this path with a big ole grin Little red, hey little red It’s not safe out here you know Hey, little red, you better hurry back home Went to see my Grandma way back in the woods Fixed her a basket of all her favorite foods I get a little worried her being all alone So I thought I’d check in , make sure she was home How was she I asked, was she doing okay That’s when Red’s eyes started to blaze The door was open, not a good sign So I crept inside to make sure she was fine Little red, hey little red Where have you been Walking down this path with a big ole grin Little red, hey little red It’s not safe out here you know Hey, little red, you better hurry back home Well what did you find when you walked through the door At first not a sound she said, just the creaking of the floors Heard a noise in the bedroom so I gave a peek inside Looked liked she was sleeping but then to my surprise Something wasn’t right, just didn’t know what Her voice was different, then I heard a cough Come closer my dear, in a voice I never heard Stopped in my tracks, I got a bit concerned Little red, hey little red Where have you been Walking down this path with a big ole grin Little red, hey little red It’s not safe out here you know Hey, little red, you better hurry back home [Instrumental interlude ] It was dark inside but what came into view That wasn’t grandma, here in this room Her eyes glowed gold, her nose was wrong Her teeth gleamed white, and much too long Whatever it was begged me to come near With what was in my basket, I didn’t have to fear Little red, hey little red Where have you been Walking down this path with a big ole grin Little red, hey little red It’s not safe out here you know Hey, little red, you better hurry back home I was now enthralled, couldn’t wait for what came next She looked at me and grinned, I was much perplexed Where was grandma I asked and what was in her bed I really was afraid that grandma might be dead She never really answered, but she found grandma was fine Out in the shed, tied up with twine Red never told me about what she had found Or what happened to the creature dressed in grandma’s gown Little red, hey little red Where have you been Walking down this path with a big ole grin Little red, hey little red It’s not safe out here you know Hey, little red, you better hurry back home The woods have their secrets, the truth may not be found The story of little red, and that demon of a hound As she skipped merrily , Back to her home I knew right then, little red was bad to the bone Little red, hey little red Where have you been Walking down this path with a big ole grin Walking down this path….with a big ole happy grin!
