Song information On this page you can find the lyrics of the song Dirty Old Man, artist - Harry Chapin. Album song The Gold Medal Collection, in the genre Dirty Old Man |
| In the sixties I wrote about four hundred songs |
| Before anybody even paid any attention |
| And they, they fit into two categories |
| They were my, my protest songs |
| Which, I was known as Gaypin Chapin in those days |
| And uh, in my, my protest songs had the implications behind them |
| If only the world was as truly wonderful as I am |
| There’d be no problems and somehow these didn’t go over very well |
| And then I had my cool, macho stud ballads |
| These were songs rather |
| Disparately intended to get someone of the opposite sex |
| Horizontal for an extended period of time with me |
| And uh, I will demonstrate |
| Why you never heard of me in the sixties |
| Alright, this is one verse of one song of that |
| The cool, macho stud period, okay |
| I’ve had pretty women in my days |
| Yeah, those long haired beauties |
| Simply rained in my way |
| I treat 'em right and they just love me more |
| And when they gave me trouble |
| I just show them the door |
| I’m a dirty old man and I don’t give a damn |
| Where were you guys during the sixties, man |
| I needed you |
