Young Man, Old Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's been tough, livin rough
But you're here stay
Six feet under the
Ground
Is not as hard as it sounds ok
Gittin' high, seein' w/ three
Eyes on a rainy day
Been dusted, busted, blown away
Gittin' in your
Ear, nothin' to fear
Let the music play
Big or tall, it¹s gonna hit
You all
Or git out the way
Come along baby, soundin' strong
Baby
What i say
We all got lines and at the end
We all gotta
Pay
Chorus:
Young man crazy
Old man wise
Some folks
Real
Some just jive
Young man crazy
Old man wise
Sun stars
Earth
Moon sky tides
Murder in mind and this time baby it's for
Real
Take the devil aside it's time to make the deal
Wash the blood
If you want
But the truth you can¹t conceal
Gonna roll on driving
Wheel
Chorus
