1. THE OLD MAN DOWN THE ROAD



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 a 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 speak in riddles
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 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

Ah, you got to, you got to, you got to hidey-hidey-hide






2. BIG TRAIN (FROM MEMPHIS)




When I was young,
I spent my summer days playin' on the track.
The sound of the wheels
rollin' on the steel took me out, took me back.


Big Train from Memphis,
Big Train from Memphis,
Now it's gone gone gone,
Gone gone gone.

Like no one before, he let out a roar,
And I just had to tag along.
Each night I went to bed with the sound in my head,
And the dream was a song.


Well I've rode 'em in and back out again -
You know what they say about trains;
But I'm tellin' you when that Memphis train
Came through,
This ol' world was not the same.
