Tune-a-Uke ☆ Clara Bow ☆ Red Hair  (1928) ☆ Original Sheet Music written by Alfred Bryan, & Ted Snyder ☆

Red Hair, they tell me spells “danger”

Because it’s the color of fire,

To this advice I’m a stranger

Since you are the one I admire.

Red Hair, Red Hair,

There’s none with you can compare.

Lock my heart in with a lock of your hair,

I’ll never care, if your love is there.

Red Hair, Red Hair,

You are beloved ev’rywhere.

And when all the silver threads shine thru the gold,

You still will be mine, dear, to have and to hold.

Beware, take care, I’m goin’ to steal you, Red Hair!

Hair!
