The old man from the mountain's coming home, home, home Thought I'd better warn you so I called you on the phone Get rid of Joe, the grinder, you better be there alone The old man from the mountain's coming home
I've been working in the sawmill, I'm all uptight and tense I got wind that someone's been diggin' under my back fence Thought I'd better call you'll and let you know today That the old man from the mountain's on his way
Yeah, the old man from the mountain's coming home, home, home Thought I'd better warn you so I called you on the phone Get rid of Joe, the grinder, you better be there alone The old man from the mountain's coming home Wind it up, son, wind it up
I've been working my dang fool head off, all for a dollar bill And I need a bunch of good loving so I'm comin' down the hill Don't need no friendly Henry's warming up my bed And the old man from the mountain means what he said
Yeah, the old man from the mountain's coming home, home, home Thought I'd better warn you so I called you on the phone Get rid of Joe, the grinder, you better be there alone The old man from the mountain's coming home Wind it up, son, one more, hit
The old man from the mountain's coming home, home, home Thought I'd better warn you so I called you on the phone Get rid of Joe, the grinder, you better be there alone The old man from the mountain's coming home
