06 Sep 99 - 07:02 PM (#111940) Subject: RE: Lyrics to Little Red Barn From: John in Brisbane In a little red barn on a farm, down in Indiana, Let ne lay my back on a stack of new mown hay, Round the barn yard where the farm yard bulls are pally, Let me dilly-dally, all the live-lond day, I'm a hooter who's blue through and through and my heart is pining, For the sycamore trees where the Wabash breezes play, Once more I'm pining for a yellow moon that's shining, On a little red barn on a farm, down in Indiana way. This song was recorded in Australia by a group known as The Overlanders (as I recall) in the 1940's. It is included on a marvellous vinyl issued in the mid 70's known as The History of Australian Country Music. I'd love a copy if anyone has it.
Regards, John |

I was born 'way down in Indiana. Wish that I were there right now. Want to hear my dog bow-wow When I go to milk the cow. Raised on corn 'way down in Indiana, So was ev'ry little hen. I was mighty happy then. Wish that I were back again: CHORUS: In a little red barn on a farm down in Indiana, Let me lay my back on a stack of new-mown hay. 'Round the barnyard where the farmyard folks are pally, Let me dilly-dally all the livelong day. I'm a Hoosier who's blue, through and through, and my heart is pining For the sycamore trees where the Wabash breezes play. What's more, I'm pining for a yellow moon that's shining On a little red barn on a farm down Indiana way. 2. Work was done 'way down in Indiana, Picked the eggs the chickens lay; Pushed the plow and pitched the hay; Ev'ry day a busy day. Had my fun 'way down in Indiana When the sun would go to rest. Saw it sinkin' in the west; That's the time I liked the best. CHORUS [Sung by Don Fields and His Pony Boys on "Last Sessions and Historic WDEV Broadcasts," Multicultural Media CD #4004, 2005.] |

Lyrics for 2 verses and a chorus are posted in this thread: Lyr Req: In a Little Red Barn (on a Farm Down...) The chords for the chorus are posted in this thread: Lyr/Chords Req: In a Little Red Barn (on a Farm...)[above - threads combined] Although there are web sites that feature images of old sheet music, they probably won't have this song because it's still under copyright. * * Gene's link doesn't work, but the song he intended to link to is a different song: THE LITTLE RED BARN, words by George Cooper, music by Florence Harper, 1881. You can see the sheet music there. |
