Letra da música "Old Man Willis"

Down in west carrol parish
About 20 miles from arkansas
Lived a man and his wife and four five children's
The weirdest people I ever saw
Old man willis
That's what everybody called him
He use to chase his young'uns and his wife
With a jim bowie huntin' knife

He had four coons, a cat, and a hound-dog
They stayed in the same house with him
Th'ate from his dinner table, drank from his water bucket
Slept in the same bed with him
Old man willis
Where do y'all come from
He used to chase his young'uns and his wife
With his double-bladed sharp knife

Lord now mamma said she thought the man was crazy
Daddy said he's just a drunk
Lord some people said
That he made his livin' makin' whiskey
In the boeuf river swamps
Old man willis
Where did you get your bread
He used to chase his young'uns and his wife
With his double-bladed huntin' knife

Lord we'd see him a comin' down the dirt road
In his '49 pontiac
Just a getting' it
An' momma would holler y'all get under the house
'Cause mr. willis drives like a maniac
Old man willis
Why do you drive so bad
He finally caught his young'uns and his wife
And slayed um' with his huntin' knife
Lord have mercy
