Old Man Noll

(john dawson)

Old man Noll was a mean old soul

He lived across the hill

I didn't know him very well

And now i never will

He had some sheep that grazed his land

And he was very old

And all the kids would stay away

We knew he was a scold

But our best treehouse was on his hill

And our navy sailed on his pond

The years have only brought me pain

Now i'm sad the old man's gone ..cause now

Chorus:

The freeway rolls where old man Noll

Used to run his sheep in the meadow

And as you drive by, if you really try

You still can see his shadow

Old man Noll was a mean old soul

At least the kids thought so

But we were much, much younger then

And now, i just don't know

The way it was when it was his

The land was clear and free

The land was life and with his wife

Was all that he could see

So when the houses came and brought

The kids who thought he was mean

I think that now, at last i see

How sad he must have been ...cause now

The freeway rolls where old man Noll

Used to run his sheep in the meadow

And as you drive by, if you really try

You still can see his shadow

Thank you very much. The last time i heard this song was 1984. I remembered every word and every little nuance like it was yesterday. I was 13 in 1984 :-)

They were a nifty little band ,indeed. Check out their livealbum (prior to "Bruijo" which this song comes from.) It really kicks butt ! :)

Thank you for posting. This brought tears to my eyes as I remembered my Dad playing this on his guitar.

Brings back memories of a coach trip to an FA cup semi final at Maine Road in 1975. An old mate and myself kept singing it. Great song!
