Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
Cursed his body 'cause it's old
And it gives no transportation
He sits in his one room shack alone
But it provides no consolation
[Verse 3]
What a shame
His time is nearin'
His eyes won't let him see
The skies are clearin'
Someone tells him
Without his hearin'
[Verse 4]
It's no news to those who've been around
While things are changin', oh
