Hooking Bull at the Landing

Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by
Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by

Me and my father sittin at the kitchen table
Eatin sweet potato pie
He said Son, life is full of hard times
Better keep a little money laid by
Better keep a little money laid by

Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by
Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by

I dreamed I saw my father
We were walkin side by side
We crossed a mighty river
And heaven was so close by
You know heaven was so close by

Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by
Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by

Then he crossed back over
Over to the other side
I asked if I could follow
But the bull wouldn't let me by
You know the bull wouldn't let me by

Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by
Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by

Well he never saw me cryin
When he said goodbye
Never saw me cryin
When he said goodbye

Me and my son sittin at the kitchen table
Eatin sweet potato pie
I said Son, life is full of hard times
Better keep a little money laid by
Better keep a little money laid by
Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by
Hookin bull at the landing
He won't let me by
