John Fogerty - The Old Man Down the Road lyrics
[John Fogerty - The Old Man Down the Road lyrics]
He take a lightnin' from the sky
He bring a strong man to his beggin' 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' 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
The old man is down the road
He make a river call your lover
He make the barkin' 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
Ah you got to, you got to, you got to
Hidey-hidey-hide
