About

It was originally believed this song sounded too much like Run Through the Jungle, but because Fogerty had performed both songs, no action was taken.

The Old Man Down the Road Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He take a thunder from the mountain
He take a lightnin' from the sky
He bring a strong man to his beggin' knee
He make the young girl's mama cry

[Chorus]
You got to hidey-hide
You got to jump and run
You got to hidey-hidey-hide
The old man is down the road

[Verse 2]
He got the voices speakin' riddle
He got the eye as black as coal
He got a suitcase covered with rattlesnake hide
And he stands right in the road

[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
He make a river call your lover
He make the barkin' of the hound
Put a shadow 'cross the window
When the old man comes around

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Ah
You got to, you got to, you got to
Hidey-hidey-hide
