Old Country

Through the years you wasted I waited patiently While the joys you tasted Not a word from me Now that age is creeping Cross your pale gray brow T'aint no use in weeping It's too late now Hey you old man sitting By the lonesome road It's about time you're quitting Life's old tiresome mode You're so sad and lonely Got no family Just an old man from some old country You ain't sired no chillun' Ain't none by your side You left all your women Whooo ain't you satisfied Don't just sit there clinging to a memory Of a love left in some old country No nobody needs you old man 'cause nobody calls your name And nobody even whispers Oh what a doggone shame So the cold grim reaper Has no sympathy You won't see your homeland 'cept through me You won't see your homeland 'cept through me Stop crying Age is creeping You won't see your homeland 'cept through me
