A poor old man came riding by
And we say so and we know so
Oh, a poor old man came riding by
Oh poor old man
Says I old man your horse will die
And we say so and we know so
And if he dies we'll tan his hide
Oh poor old man
And if he don't i'll ride him again
And we say so and we know so
And I'll ride him till the lord knows when
Oh poor old man
Hes dead as a nail in the lamp room door
And we say so and we know so
And he wont come worrying us no more
Oh poor old man
We'll use the hair of his tail to sew our sails
And we say so and we know so
And the iron of his shoes to make deck nails
Oh poor old man
Drop him down with a long long rope
And we say so and we know so
Where the sharks will have his body and the devil takes his soul
Oh poor old man
