What song has the words come on someone try and run old reds itching to have some fun?

"Ol' Red" is the name of the song, and it's by Blake Shelton. I've linked to the CD in the sources section. The complete lyrics are as follows:

Well I caught my wife with another man

And it cost me ninety nine

On a prison farm in Georgia

Close to the Florida line

Well I'd been here for 2 long years

I finally made the warden my friend

And so he sentenced me to a life of ease

Taking care of Ol Red

Now Ol' Red he's the damnedest dog that I've ever seen

Got a nose that can smell a two day trail

He's a four legged tracking machine

You can consider yourself mighty lucky

To get past the gators and the quicksand beds

But all these years that I've been here

Ain't nobody got past Red

And the warden sang

Come on somebody

Why don't you run

Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun

Get my lantern

Get my gun

Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes

Well I paid off the guard and I slipped out a letter

To my cousin up in Tennessee

Oh and he brought down a blue tick hound

She was pretty as she could be

Well they penned her up in the swampland

'Bout a mile just south of the gate

And I'd take Ol' Red for his evening run

I'd just drop him off and wait

And the warden sang

Come on somebody

Why don't you run

Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun

Get my lantern

Get my gun

Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes

Now Ol' Red got real used to seeing

His lady every night

And so I kept him away for three or four days

And waited till the time got right

Well I made my run with the evenin' sun

And I smiled when I heard 'em turn Red out

'Cause I was headed north to Tennessee

And Ol' Red was headed south

And the warden sang

Come on somebody

Why don't you run

Ol' Red's itchin' to have a little fun

Get my lantern

Get my gun

Red'll have you treed before the mornin' comes

Now there's red haired blue ticks all in the South

Love got me in here and love got me out

What causes whitehead spots around the waistline and stomach area in someone who never gets them?

This is acne -- it is caused by bacteria. On the body, this tends to happen more in the Spring and Summer when it is warm outside. A dermatologist can give you special washes and creams to clear it up. This is also an area of the body that perspires and is not exposed to air during the day. Use a good powder such as Gold Bond, or use Aveeno lotion.

Why is your hand itching after carpal tunnel surgery?

This is not too uncommon, sometimes the itching can be from the soaps used to clean your hand for surgery..it may take a week or or so but in some people it will cause a mild rash or itching. Also it could be from the skin being dried out or eczema. Also the skin in that area was kind of stretched so this sometimes irritates the nerves causing an itchy sensation later on. There's not a whole lot to be worried about and it should go away. Try soaking area in epson salts with warm water 2 x day, then apply neurtogena concentrated hand cream.

Can you get jock itch in your mouth?

Yes you can. And go to the doctors for medicine. All jock itch is is a yeast infection for a boy so if he has one and you go down there it is. Just like genital herpes and cold sores if you have a cold sore and go down there it turns into genital herpes and you have it for the rest of you life. So go to the docs and get antibiotics before it gets worse *** Jock itch is NOT a yeast infection! It is a fungal infection, just like the condition of athlete's foot. You can get it simply by wearing sweaty, or unwashed underwear or athletic gear. And just like athlete's foot, it can be treated with topical ointments or powders. However you should hold off on oral sex until the jock itch has cleared up. While yeast is a fungus, it is completely different from the fungus that causes jock itch and athlete's foot, and it is a more serious problem. The yeast actually originates in the digestive tract, but can easily spread from the anus to the vagina - especially if a woman does not regulary change her underwear. No sexual contact is required for a woman to get a vaginal yeast infection. She can get it from herself. However yeast infections can be spread sexually as well. Yeast do not affect men as they do women, because they require a warm dark place to really thrive, and the penis is just too exposed to become a breeding ground for them. However yeast can survive for some time on the penis before they die off. And so a man can spread the infection from one woman to another if he does not use condoms. A unprotected penis can pick up yeast from ANY anus (female or male) or any infected vagina, and then pass them on to an uninfected vagina or to a mouth. That's why it's important to wear condoms during any anal or vaginal intercourse. And even if you are having sex with just one woman, you should always change condoms if you are changing between anal and vaginal sex
