Old Man |
Got a old horse |
Run loose on the farm |
Like a big dog |
Don’t do no harm |
And i live down |
A dead end track |
Me and my horse |
And them chickens out back |
Raised five kids |
They’ve all up and gone |
Came up rough |
Not a one went wrong |
When the old woman died |
They scattered in the wind |
And i never know |
When i’ll see em again |
I’m an old man |
Done all i can |
I been working this land |
Since i was 24 |
I’m an old man |
Ain’t a whole lot going on around here anymore |
Had an old dog |
Lived 15 years |
Train got his leg |
Coon got his ear |
He loved to hunt |
He loved to fight |
The way i used to be |
On saturday night |
Repeat chorus |
I still work |
A good half a day |
Plant a little corn |
Cut a little hay |
Don’t want a die |
Untill i’ve lived too long |
They’ll sell this place |
Whenever i’m gone |
I miss my sweetheart so |
And they way she used to smile |
I miss them kids of mine |
Runnin wild |
When daylight fades |
In late afternoon |
Bout all i know is |
It was gone to soon |
Repeat chorus |
Ain’t a whole log goin on around her anymore |
Ain’t a whole lot going on around her any more |
