OLD MAN DOWN THE ROAD    E/Em
Video  |  Royal Albert HallFogerty Live
E
He take the thunder from the mountain,
He take the lightnin' from the sky,
                                              G
He bring the strong man to his begging knee,
E
He make the young girls mama cry.
--------------------------------------------
You got to hidey-hide,
You gotta jump and run;
You got to hidey-hidey-hide,
        C                    D                E
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.

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.
