[Verse 1]
            E7
He take the thunder from the mountain
         E7
He take the lightning from the sky
             G                 E7
He bring the strong man to his bended knee
            E7
He make the young girls mama cry
           E7
You got to hidey-hide
           E7
You got to jump and run
           E7
You got to hidey hidey-hide
    C         D        E7
The old man's down the road
           E7
He got the voices speakin' riddles
           E7
He got the eye as black as coal
         G                     E7
He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide
       E7
And he stand right in the road
           E7
You got to hidey-hide
           E7
You got to jump and run away
           E7
You got to hidey hidey-hide
    C         D        E7
The old man's down the road
            E7
He make the river call your lover
            E7
He make the barking of the hound
        G               E7
Put the shadow across the window
         E7
When the old man comes around
           E7
You got to hidey-hide
           E7
You got to jump and run again
           E7
You got to hidey hidey-hide
    C         D        E7
The old man's down the road
    C       D           E7
The old man is down the road
    C       D           E7
The old man is down the road
