Old Man on the Mountain © 2022 W. Dire Wolff

• I’m going to tell you a story
• I don’t really know how it goes
• Just that same old story
• About how people get bought and sold.

• Talking about an old man
• Talking about an old man on the mountain
• He just had a burro
• And a gunny sack of gold.

• He came down from that mountain
• He came down to the town
• He brought that gold with him
• To see what was going down

• He went down to that valley
• He went down to that town
• He went down to the merchant
• He went down to the man
• He went down to the man
• He said, “I got some gold for you.”
• They said, “We’ll do the best we can.”

• They took a little money
• They took a little gold
• They took a little body
• They took a little soul.

• The old Man came down from the mountain
• He wanted to find what folks was all about
• What they was all about
• He’d been up there on the mountain
• Some thought he was checking out

• He gave them all his money
• He gave them all his gold
• TThey didn’t settle for his body
• They didn’t settle for his soul

• He gave them all his money
• He gave them all his gold
• TThey didn’t settle for his body
• They didn’t settle for his soul
