Old Man Lyrics

[Intro]
Old man, look at my life
I'm a lot like you
Old man, look at my life
I'm a lot like you

[Verse 1]
Old man, look at my life
24 and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two
Love lost, such a cost
Give me things that don't get lost
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you

[Chorus]
Old man, take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
The whole day through
Oh, one look in my eyes
And you can tell that's true

[Verse 2]
Lullabies, look in your eyes
Run around that same old town
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you
I've been first and last
Funny how the time goes past
But I'm all alone at last
Rolling home to you
[Chorus]
Old man, take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
The whole day through
Oh, one look in my eyes
And you can tell that's true

[Outro]
Old man, look at my life
Old man, look at my life
Old man, look at my life
Old man, look at my life
Old man, look at my life
Yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
