Old Lady

(album: Mayonnaise - 2019)

Well, I'm too old to know
That I'm too young to stop
But space and loam won't grow them back
Well, no matter what I'm rolling
"To health" is what I've got
Facing the world ain't gonna make me snap
You can find a mountain
You can pace me 'round top
I'll tunnel down Broadway back to you
You can tape me to the floor
Lock up all your doors
Close your eyes and listen for the truth

I never said it would be fun
And when all said and done
The starting line was right there at my feet
I never said that I would quit
Hey there, friends, come get a load of this
It would get crazy to be a man for my old lady

From the wind that doesn't listen
To the sea that doesn't shine
I can't say I'm surprised that I'm not shy
Oh, the sky shows me blue
And your eyes show me you
Every cell I've got fills up my heart
But darling, when you need
To put your mind at ease
I've got tickets to way you the came
If you can't show up on time
Oh, if you make me wait a while
I'll try my best to understand

I never said it would be fun
And when all said and done
The starting line was right there at my feet
I never said that I would quit
Hey there, friends, come get a load of this
I'm gonna get crazy and be a man for my old lady
