Old Man Willis - Tony Joe White[00:00:01]
Down in West Carrol Parish [00:00:08]
About 20 miles from Arkansas[00:00:11]
Lived a man and his wife and four five children's[00:00:14]
The weirdest people I ever saw[00:00:18]
Old Man Willis[00:00:21]
That's what everybody called him[00:00:24]
He use to chase his young'uns and his wife[00:00:29]
With a Jim Bowie huntin' knife[00:00:33]
He had four coons a cat and a hound-dog [00:00:44]
They stayed in the same house with him [00:00:47]
Th'ate from his dinner table [00:00:51]
Drank from his water bucket [00:00:53]
Slept in the same bed with him [00:00:54]
Haa [00:00:58]
Old man Willis [00:00:58]
Where do y'all come from [00:01:01]
He used to chase his young'uns and his wife [00:01:05]
With his double-bladed sharp knife [00:01:08]
Lord now mamma said she thought the man was crazy[00:01:19]
Daddy said he's just a drunk haa haa[00:01:24]
Lord Some people said that he made his livin'[00:01:27]
Makin' whiskey in the Boeuf River swamps[00:01:30]
Old Man Willis[00:01:33]
Where did you get your bread [00:01:36]
He used to chase his young'uns and his wife[00:01:41]
With his double-bladed huntin' knife [00:01:45]
Lord we'd see him a comin' down the dirt road[00:01:56]
In his '49 Pontiac[00:01:59]
Just a getting' it [00:02:03]
An' momma would holler y'all get under the house [00:02:05]
'Cause Mr Willis drives like a maniac [00:02:08]
Old Man Willis[00:02:12]
Why do you drive so bad [00:02:15]
He finally caught his young'uns and his wife [00:02:19]
And slayed um' with his huntin' knife[00:02:23]
Lord have mercy[00:02:26]
