| [00:00.53] |
A poor old man |
| [00:01.96] |
Came riding by. |
| [00:03.18] |
And we say so, |
| [00:04.46] |
And we know so. |
| [00:05.94] |
O, a poor old man |
| [00:07.04] |
Came riding by, |
| [00:08.35] |
O, poor old man. |
| [00:10.92] |
Says I, "Old man, |
| [00:12.09] |
Your horse will die." |
| [00:13.46] |
And we say so, |
| [00:14.77] |
And we know so. |
| [00:15.93] |
And if he dies |
| [00:17.25] |
we'll tan his hide. |
| [00:18.36] |
O, poor old man. |
| [00:20.96] |
And if he don't, |
| [00:22.14] |
I'll ride him again. |
| [00:23.46] |
And we say so, |
| [00:24.72] |
And we know so. |
| [00:26.02] |
And I'll ride him |
| [00:27.16] |
'Til the Lord knows when, |
| [00:28.47] |
O, poor old man. |
| [00:31.24] |
He's dead as a nail |
| [00:32.37] |
In the lamp room door, |
| [00:33.68] |
And we say so, |
| [00:34.88] |
And we know so. |
| [00:36.20] |
And he won't come |
| [00:37.42] |
Worrying us no more |
| [00:38.67] |
O, poor old man. |
| [00:41.23] |
We'll use the hair of his tail |
| [00:42.60] |
To sew our sails |
| [00:43.81] |
And we say so, |
| [00:45.07] |
And we know so. |
| [00:46.34] |
And the iron of his shoes |
| [00:47.60] |
To make deck nails, |
| [00:48.92] |
O, poor old man. |
| [00:51.44] |
Drop him down |
| [00:52.81] |
With a long long rope |
| [00:53.92] |
And we say so, |
| [00:55.18] |
And we hope so. |
| [00:56.84] |
Where the sharks have his body |
| [00:58.30] |
And the devil takes his soul! |
| [01:00.26] |
O, poor old man. |
