| A loose end and a hot day
|
| What a match made up there I’d say
|
| For pulling on your work jeans
|
| And throwing a cigarette in the yard
|
| We could always make like Spring-time
|
| With new paint over old
|
| 'till the chains snaps clean off our machine
|
| And they don’t make them anymore
|
| Surely a blessing you are
|
| And I’ll only spoil your fun
|
| 'gus see, me I’m an old soul
|
| I don’t think I belong
|
| In your modern world
|
| You could always see the good things
|
| And I’d make do to make your heart sing
|
| See the rust set in all over
|
| As being only surface deep
|
| Yet I’d give you racing handles
|
| And strip your back for speed
|
| Treat you kind and paint you clever
|
| If you make it home with me
|
| Surely a blessing you are
|
| And I’ll only spoil your fun
|
| 'gus see, me I’m an old soul
|
| I don’t think I belong
|
| In your modern world
|
| I’ll remember you best in June
|
| You took it oh so well
|
| Changed clothes and your tune
|
| Down at the dunes out by
|
| California Sands
|
| And you’re red around the eyes now
|
| But have it on the chin
|
| You’re looking bonnie with the wind
|
| In them salt water curls
|
| Surely a blessing you are
|
| And I’ll only spoil your fun
|
| 'gus see, me I’m an old soul
|
| I don’t think I belong
|
| In your modern world
|
| Me I’m an old soul
|
| I don’t think I belong
|
| In your modern world
|
| Modern world, in your
|
| Modern world
|
| Your modern world |
