He take a 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 hide, hide You got to jump and run You got to hide, hide, hide The old man is down the road He makes the voices speak and riddle He got the eye as black as coal He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide And he stay right in the road You got to hide, hide You got to jump and run again You got to hide, hide, hide The old man is down the road He make the river call you lover He make the barking of the hound Put a shadow 'cross the window When the old man comes around You got to hide, hide You got to jump and run again You got to hide, hide, hide The old man is down the road The old man is down the road (Guitar Solo)
