Kathy Kirby - Ol' Man Mose

One time there lived an old man
With a funny crooked nose
Well he lived inside of a log hut
And they called him ol' man Mose

One dark and dreary mornin'
I knocked upon his door
I could not hear a single sound
I ain't gonna hear it no more

'Cause I believe, ol' man
I believe, ol' man
I believe, ol' man
That ol' man Mose is dead

I believe Mose kicked that bucket
Yeah man, the buck-buck-bucket
I believe Mose kicked that bucket
And ol' man Mose is dead!

I went 'round to the window
And I peeped into a crack
Inside there was some old gent
Lying flat upon his back

I thought that he was nappin'
His hands hung to the floor
Well he did not make a single sound
He ain't gonna make it no more 'Cause I found out, ol' man
I found out, ol' man
I found out, ol' man
that ol' man Mose is dead

Now don't you know, I believe Mose kicked that bucket
Yeah man, the buck-buck-bucket
I believe Mose kicked that bucket
And ol' man Mose is dead!

One time there lived an old man
With a funny crooked nose
Well he lived inside of a log hut

I did not hear a single sound
I ain't gonna hear it no more

'Cause I believe, ol' man
I believe, ol' man
I believe, ol' man
That ol' man Mose is dead

Imma tellin' you, I believe Mose kicked that bucket
Yeah man, the buck-buck-bucket
I believe Mose kicked that bucket
And ol' man Mose is dead!

Tell ya leader now, I found out Mose kicked that bucket
Yeah man, the buck-buck-bucket
I believe Mose kicked that bucket
And ol' man Mose is dead!
