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.
