Michael Nesmith
Little Red Rider
[Verse 1]
Little red rider, ride on the railroad
In she rides
Little red rider, ride on the railroad
Waved goodbye
So long sunshine, ride away
I know you'll come back some day
And light my life

[Verse 2]
Little Miss Red's asleep on the railroad
There she goes
Little Miss Red's asleep on the railroad
No one knows
That Little Miss Red is Little Miss Blue
And she looks a lot like you
Around the eyes

[Chorus]
Nobody was home in town
Oh, nobody was home in town
Nobody was home in the town I called on
Somebody said they all had drowned

[Verse 3]
Bye-bye, sweet miss, give me one kiss
And then I'll go
Bye-bye, sweet miss, give me one kiss
Don't let it show
Then turn your brown eyes to the wall
Was that message there before
You were so wise?
[Verse 3, repeated]
Oh, bye-bye, sweet miss, give me one kiss
And then I'll go
Bye-bye, sweet miss, give me one kiss
Don't let it show
Then turn your brown eyes to the wall
Was that message there before
You were so wise?
