The Old Man Down the Road - The Meteors

作词：P. Paul Fenech

作曲：P. Paul Fenech

He take the thunder from the mountain

He take a lightning from the sky

He bring a strong man to his begging knee

He make the young girl's mama cry

You got to hidey-hide

You got to jump and run

You got to hidey-hidey-hide

The old man is down the road

He got the voices speakin' riddles

He got the eye as black as coal

He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide

And he stands right in the road

You got to hidey-hide

You got to jump up run away

You got to hidey-hidey-hide

The old man is down the road

He make the river call your lover

He make the barking of the hound

Put a shadow 'cross the window

When the old man comes around

You got to hidey-hide

You got to jump and run again

You got to hidey-hidey-hide

The old man is down the road

He take the thunder from the mountain

He take a lightning from the sky

He bring a strong man to his begging knee

He make the young girl's mama cry

You got to hidey-hide

You got to jump and run again

You got to hidey-hidey-hide

The old man is down the road

The old man is down the road

The old man is down the road

The old man is down the road
