Old Man Blues in A
Sittin’ here
Try to get it clear
How the old man does his job
Although his time is near
What keeps him goin’ when life has stopped growin’?
What keeps him strong?
How can he move along?
When life is
Up every day at six
Get that morning coffee fix
And buses and trains carry him
Over frozen city streets
The young people laugh at him as he slides across the sleet
Is love there?
Is love there?
Is love there?
Is love fair?
You make your life a little easier
And someone’s gotta make it up somewhere
Your life a little easier as you lose another care
Is love there?
Is love there?
Well I might have made the grade
I might have had what it takes
Yeah, I might made the “A”s
And I might have made mistakes
And I think about the old man
And I think about the time
And I think I’d like to help him
But I haven’t got a dime
When life is
Up every day at six
Get that morning coffee fix
And buses and trains carry him
Over frozen city streets
The young people laugh at him as he slides across the sleet
Is love there?
Is love there?
Is love there?
Is love fair?
You make your life a little easier
And someone’s gotta make it up somewhere
Your life a little easier as you lose another care
Is love there?
Is love there?
