Hey old man
What are you going to do
you are all alone
your world's falling in on you
and your sight's gone down
till you can't recognize
your friends now from your foes
and the young men pass you by
Hey old friend
does no one come around?
Through tears you reminisce
for soon they'll put you in the ground
And since his wife has died
he'd gone down, down, down
He prays god will take his life
He's gone down, down, down... down
Hey young man
what are you going to do
when your time has come
your world's falling in on you
and your sight's go down
till you can't recognize
your friends then from your foes
maybe then you'll realize the old man
that you passed by
and never said a word
one day you will be
and you'll see just how much it hurts
when your kids don't come around
and you're down, down down
Your wife is in the ground
you'll be down, down, down...down
