Old Man

Old man sleeping the hot day away

While he dreams a thousand yesterdays

'Cause he's had so many come his way

All he cares about is somewhere to lay his head tomorrow

Old man sits and thinks about his home

Doesn't matter 'cause he's all alone

What he'd give to get back on his own

Curses his body 'cause it's old and it gives no transportation

He sits in his one room shack alone but it provides no consolation

What a shame, his time is nearing

His eyes won't let him see the skies are clearing

Someone tells him without his hearing

It's no news to those who've been around while things are changing, oh
