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 'Cause the old man from the mountain's Comin' home I've been a-workin' in the sawmill I'm all up-tight and tense And I got word that someone's Been diggin' under my back fence Thought I'd better call you Let you know today That the old man from the mountain's On his way 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 want no friendly Henry's Warmin' up my bed And the old man from the mountain Means what he said
