Once there lived an old man
And he had a very funny nose
He lived in a little odd hut
Called him ol' man Mose
Well, I went down to his cabin
And I looked in through the door
Well, there I saw a little old man lying on the floor
Well, whether he was dead or not, I really don't know
But one thing that I'm certain of, ain't going there no more
Because I found out, ol' man, all about
Ol' man, you know I found out
Ol' man, ol' man Mose is dead, now

We believe Mo kick'd the bucket
We believe ol' Mo kick'd the bucket
We believe, yeah Mo kick'd the bucket
And we believe he's dead

Well, I went down to his cabin
And I looked in through the door
There I saw a little old man lying on the floor
Well, whether he was dead or not, I really don't know
But one thing that I'm certain of, ain't going there no more
I found out, ol' man, all about
Ol' man, you know I found out
Ol' man, ol' man Mose is dead, yes
We believe Mo kick'd the bucket
We believe y'know Mo kick'd the bucket
We believe, ol' Mo kick'd the bucket
And we believe he's dead
