Now one time there lived an old man
With a very crooked nose
He lived inside a log hut
and they called him ol´ man Mose
One dark and dreary morning I knocked upon his door
I didn´t hear a single sound
so I ain´t gonna do it no more.

´cos I believe ol´ man, I believe ol´ man
I believe ol´ man, thatol´ man Mose is dead.
I believe ol´ man, I believe ol´ man
I believe ol´ man, that ol´ man Mose is dead.

(Now you believe) Mose kicked the bucket
(You believe) Mose kicked the bucket
(You believe) Mose kicked the bucket
(You believe he´s dead)

(You believe) Mose kicked the bucket
(You believe) Mose kicked the bucket
(You believe) Mose kicked the bucket
(You believe he´s dead)

Now listen here,
I went round to the window
And I peeped in through the crack,
Inside there was an old man
Laying flat upon his back
I thought that he was sleeping
Head hung to the floor
He didn´t make a single move
So I ain´t gonna do it no more

´cos I found out ol´ man, I found out ol´ man
yeah, I found out ol´ man, ol´ man Mose is dead

(´cos you found out) ol´ man
(you found out) ol´ man
(you found out) ol´ man
(you found out he´s dead)

(you found out) Mose kicked the bucket
(you found out) Mose kicked the bucket
(you found out) Mose kicked the bucket
(you found out he´s dead)


(you found out) Mose kicked the bucket
(you found out) Mose kicked the bucket
(you found out) Mose kickin´ up daisies
(you found out he´s dead)

Old Man Mose is dead.
