The Lyrics
I first had the idea to do this parody back in 2009, but never really finished it. I recently heard "Run Runaway" for the first time in a long time, so that jogged my memory and allowed me to finish the parody.
Whoa there!
Keeps him up at night
(And makes him feel alright)
Keeps him up at night
Old gray mare
See him in the barn
Riding her, I'll be darned
See him in the barn
Old gray mare
Ain't what she used to be
(It don't bother him, you see)
Ain't what she used to be
Old gray mare
See that creepy man
Jump the fence, yes he can
See that creepy man
Old gray mare
Owner called the cops
So they could make him stop
Owner called the cops
Old gray mare
See that man in jail
For chasing after horsey tail
See that man in jail
Old gray mare
Out of jail and then
Soon enough he's back again
Watch out for creepy men
Old gray mare
See that guy return
Guess some people never learn
See that guy return
Old gray mare
Old gray mare
Old gray mare
Old gray mare
Keeps him up at night
(And makes him feel alright)
Keeps him up at night
Old gray mare
See him in the barn
Riding her, I'll be darned
See him in the barn
Old gray mare
Ain't what she used to be
(It don't bother him, you see)
Ain't what she used to be
Old gray mare
See that creepy man
Jump the fence, yes he can
See that creepy man
Old gray mare
Owner called the cops
So they could make him stop
Owner called the cops
Old gray mare
See that man in jail
For chasing after horsey tail
See that man in jail
Old gray mare
Out of jail and then
Soon enough he's back again
Watch out for creepy men
Old gray mare
See that guy return
Guess some people never learn
See that guy return
Old gray mare
Old gray mare
Old gray mare
Old gray mare
