Old Man Of The Mountain Lyrics - How Big Can You Get?: The Music Of Cab Calloway - Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

With a long white beard and his crooked staff 

He walks around while the folks all laugh 

With a twinkle in his eye he will pass them by 

The old man of the mountain 

But he's got long hair and his feet are bare 

They say he's mad as an old march hare 

His cares are none and he owes no one 

The old man of the mountain 

He talks with the birds when he's lonely 

Sleeps with the sky as a tent 

Feast make a feast when he's hungry 

And God charges no rent

May he live as long as an old oak tree 

And laugh at fools like you and me 

Who I often sigh and wish that I 

Was the old man of the mountain 

He talks with the birds when he's lonely 

Sleeps with the sky as a tent 

Feast make a feast when he's hungry 

And God charges no rent 

May he live as long as an old oak tree 

And laugh at fools like you and me 

Who I often sigh and wish that I 

Was the old man of the mountain

Yes, I often sigh and wish that I 

Was the old man of the mountain 

Ooh, I often sigh and wish that I 

Was the old man of the mountain
