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 youhg 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 speak in riddle
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
theold 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
The old man is down the road.
you got to. you got to. you got to hidey-hidey-hide.
