joe stamm band - old man lyrics
[verse 1]
the prices ain’t what they used to be
but this time of year you’ll still find me
wadin’ down a creek settin’ muskrat lines
my kids say, i oughta hang it up
they bought me a phone to keep in the truck
but it’s turned off and outta reach most the time
i tell ’em a creek bank ain’t a bad place to die
[chorus]
i’m an old man, livin’ out my days in a strange land
the face i shave is a different man’s, who i don’t recognize
all the wear and tear, weren’t for my kids i’d be outta here
never look back, and i wouldn’t care
what i left behind, but i worry what i’m leavin’ behind
[verse 2]
i still keep a few head out back
and i sit here watchin’ ’em pick the grass
them cows is the closest thing i got left to friends
’cause the old souls in their big wet eyes
is the one thing i still recognize
so i ain’t got the heart to haul ’em in
i just move ’em back and forth, pasture to pen
[chorus]
i’m an old man, livin’ out my days in a strange land
the face i shave is a different man’s, who i don’t recognize
all the wear and tear, weren’t for my kids i’d be outta here
never look back, and i wouldn’t care
what i left behind, but i worry what i’m leavin’ behind
[bridge]
’cause the pheasants ain’t in the fence rows
and we’re all starin’ at our cell phones
not listenin’ to the earth as he cries
[chorus]
i’m an old man, livin’ out my days in a strange land
the face i shave is a different man’s, who i don’t recognize
all the wear and tear, weren’t for my kids i’d be outta here
never look back, and i wouldn’t care
what i left behind, but i worry what i’m leavin’ behind
