The Old Man

歌詞

Off he goes Down the road Who knows how many He's been down before. With all the years He's comes to know Does he wonder if he's Gonna see one more. Hanging on to yesterdays Til'too many tomorrow's are today With all the turns the road will bring Well, a young man's gotta wait and see. Will I ever be the old man Whose words young ones ponder on Will I ever take a lady's hand And will I ever be the old man Who finds that he's too far gone Will, there come a day when I can't stand Am I gonna live that long? Reaching out For days to come Where an old man walks A young man runs. The road I know Is bound to end Still I can't help wonderin' Where and when. Will I ever be the old man Whose words young ones ponder on Will I ever take a lady's hand And will I ever be the old man Who finds that he's too far gone Will there come a day when I can't stand Tell me am I gonna live that long?.. --- Instrumental to fade ---
