"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Where ya headed?
Where ya headed?
Where ya headed?
.
"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Follow me, instead!
Follow me, instead!
Hey there, Little Red!"
.
Just stay on the path.
.
Now the moon is full
When the monsters all play
And when they all seek out
Their unfortunate prey.
So as you go,
Oh, please do take care
And of the Bad Wolf
You had better beware.
.
His eyes shine red
In the dark of the night
Searching for his
Next victim to bite.
So if you see him
You had better flee
And pray that the
Morning you will see.
And pray that the
Morning you will see.

"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Where ya headed?
Where ya headed?
Where ya headed?
.
"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Follow me, instead!
Follow me, instead!
Hey there, Little Red!"
.
Just stay on the path.
"Hey there, Little Red! Red!"
He's a psychopath!
.
"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Where ya headed?
Where ya headed?
Why the coat of red?
Loose it from your head.
Follow me, instead!"
.
And if you ever
Get lost in the wood
Just tighten your grip
On your little hood
For if on your head
The red fabric stays
Then it shall keep
The dread wolf at bay.
.
When the wolf comes
Just pay him no heed
'Cause your attention
Is all that he needs
But at the same time
Be aware that he's there
So that you can avoid
All of his snares.

"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Where ya headed?
Where ya headed?
Where ya headed?

"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Follow me, instead!
Follow me, instead!
Hey there, Little Red!"
.
Just stay on the path.
"Hey there, Little Red! Red!"
He's a psychopath!
.
"What's that, Little Red?
Granny's sick in bed?
See the flowerbed
Go pick them instead.
.
"Granny's just ahead
That's what the girl said.
I'll bite off her head
Then eat Little Red!"
.
Little Red
Granny's not in bed!
It's someone else instead!
.
"Why, my dear Granny!
What big ears you have!"
.
"The better to hear you."
.
"Why, my dear Granny!
What big teeth you have!"
.
"The better to eat you!
.
"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Granny is dead!
Granny is dead!
Granny is dead!
.
"Now then, Little Red!
Now then, Little Red!
Lose the coat of red!
Lose the coat of red!
So that you'll be bled!"
.
Go seek out the huntsman.
"Hey there, Little Red! Red!"
The Wolf is a madman!
.
"Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Hey there, Little Red!
Little Red…"
