Soul of Old Man Lyrics

I've heard about an old man

'bout his pickin' on the strings

You may be sure that tale is true

He had an old tune banjo

Had drivin' all the time

And his mind was little blue

R:Mountain burrow, banjo and rockin' chair

That's the reason why he said

Life is great, I don't feel sorrow

I want to live without dread

He lived alone on the mountain

They called him grey old bear

He woke up with a morning sun

All the trees were bowin' down

When his banjo started to play

And his work was almost done

R:Mountain burrow, banjo and rockin' chair

That's the reason why he said

Life is great, I don't feel sorrow

I want to live without dread
