Testo Old Man - Slaughter

Testo della canzone Old Man (Slaughter), tratta dall'album The Wild Life (Expanded Edition)

(Mark Slaughter, Dana Strum)

Wanna tell ya a story that happened to me

There was this old man started chattin' with me

He sat by himself on the side of the road

A cowboy hat and them pointed toes

He said, hey son what do ya do

Ya better pay attention when I'm talkin' to you

I've been around here for a long, long time

Could have bought this land for damn near a dime

(Right over there past that gas station over there, see it)

So I headed on over, leaned against his truck

And ya better hear me out or you're shit outta luck

I've been through times that you wouldn't believe

It makes a man feel about a hundred and three

Again he asked, what do ya do

I can't imagine by lookin' at you

Boy, things have changed since way back when

I wish that I was back in my teens again

I said hey, I said hey, to what the old man said

So we hopped in his truck, went for a ride

He talked about things before I was alive

Ya know, that used to be a big mining town

My brother and I brought that mountain down

My oh my, look how they built over there

Have ya ever thought about cutting that hair

Ya never told me what do ya do

Tell me kid, are ya just passing through

You say hey, you say hey, from what the old man said

So I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried

Yeah, I tried to speak my piece

So, low and behold when all was told the only listening one was me

So I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried

Yeah, I tried to break on through

So, low and behold when all was told the stubburn one was he

So the moral of the story is ya gotta learn a lesson

Especially from a man who got a Smith and Wesson

Ya better learn with your ears and not with your eyes

Or you'll be dealt a big surprise

I said hey, I said hey

To what the old man said

>From what he said now
