Merle Haggard

Merle Ronald Haggard (born April 6, 1937) is an American country music song writer, singer, guitarist, fiddler and instrumentalist. Along with Buck Owens, Haggard and his band The Strangers helped create the Bakersfield sound, which is characterized by the unique twang of Fender Telecaster and the unique mix with the traditional country steel guitar sound, new vocal harmony styles in which the words are minimal, and a rough edge not heard on the more polished Nashville Sound recordings of the same era. more »

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
'Cause the old man from the mountain's comin' home

I've been a-workin' in the sawmill
I'm all uptight and tense
And I got wind that someone's 
Been diggin' under my back fence
Thought I'd better call you
And 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
'Cause the old man from the mountain's comin' home, wind it up, now

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 Henrys 
Warmin' up my bed
And the old man from the mountains means what he said

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
Better be there alone
'Cause the old man from the mountain's comin' home, one more time!

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
'Cause the old man from the mountain's comin' home
