An Entity of Type: song, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

"Ida Red" is an American traditional song of unknown origins that was made famous in the upbeat 1938 version by Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys. Wills' "Ida Red" served as the primary inspiration for Chuck Berry's first big hit "Maybellene". It is chiefly identified by variations of the chorus: Ida Red, Ida Red, I'm a plumb fool 'bout Ida Red. Verses are unrelated, rather humorous, and free form, changing from performance to performance. Ida Red's identity is unknown, but is feminine in most uses. Ida Red, she's a darned ol' fool,Tried to put a saddle on a hump-back mule. Oh, weep! Oh, my Ida!

  • "Ida Red" is an American traditional song of unknown origins that was made famous in the upbeat 1938 version by Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys. Wills' "Ida Red" served as the primary inspiration for Chuck Berry's first big hit "Maybellene". It is chiefly identified by variations of the chorus: Ida Red, Ida Red, I'm a plumb fool 'bout Ida Red. Verses are unrelated, rather humorous, and free form, changing from performance to performance. Ida Red's identity is unknown, but is feminine in most uses. The earliest recording is a one by (Victor 19434, 1924), which includes vocals. There is also an early well-known instrumental by , (Brunswick 125, 1927). Like his father and grandfather, Wills, renowned in parts of Texas for his fiddling talents before he formed the Texas Playboys, would have learned this tune in his earliest days of fiddling. "Ida Red", the personage, appears in a number of other songs only distantly related to the song "Ida Red". One, by Charlie Poole and the North Carolina Ramblers whose "Shootin' Creek" (Columbia 15286-D, 1928), a version of "Cripple Creek", contains verses from "Ida Red", i.e.: Ida Red, she's a darned ol' fool,Tried to put a saddle on a hump-back mule. Alan Lomax includes another in his collection of "Negro Bad Men" songs titled "Ida Red". Other than the title, this song is in no way related to the folk song. This song is of a criminal feeling sorry for himself. In every verse he wails to his woman: Oh, weep! Oh, my Ida! There are also several songs that share the same tune but unrelated subject matter. These include "Down The Road" and "Over The Road I'm Bound to Go". (en)
