I’m an Old, Old Man (Tryin’ to live While I Can) Songtext
von Merle Haggard

Said an old man to a good lookin′ girl
Well, I've been around this big wide world
That home on the hill, well honey that′s mine
I've got the money if you've got the time

Well, I′m not too old to cut the mustard anymore
I can still get around like I did before
So you come along with me my sweet sweet hon′
I'm an old man lookin′ for fun


Yeah, what I can do now most young men can't
There′s not a town this old boy can't paint
I can make all the night clubs, any old time
I may be a little old but I′m doin' all right

Well, I'm not too old to cut the mustard anymore
I can still get around like I did before
So come along with me my sweet sweet hon′
I′m an old old man searchin' for fun

Don′t take me wrong, I just want have fun
Have someone along to help me, spend my mon'
′Cause you don't live but once so please understand
That I′m an old old man tryin' to live while I can
