The old man from the mountain's comin' 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 comin' home.
I've been a-workin in the sawmill, an' I'm all uptight and tense.
I got wind that someone's been diggin' under my back fence.
Thought I'd better call y'all, an' let you know today,
That the old man from the mountain's on his way.

Yeah, the old man from the mountain's comin' 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 comin' home.
Wind it up, son, wind it up.

I been workin' my dang fool head off all for a dollar bill.
Now I need a bunch of good lovin', so I'm comin' down the hill.
Don't need no friendly Henry's warmin' up my bed.
And the old man from the mountains means what he said.

Yeah, the old man from the mountain's comin' 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 comin' home.
Wind it up, son, one more.

Yeah, the old man from the mountain's comin' 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 comin' home.
