When I'm Old (feat. Sweet Sassy Molassey)

lyrics

When I’m old, and you’re long dead
I’ll crop my hair ‘gainst the side my head.
I’ll paint my door of the deepest darkest red.
When I’m old, and you’re long dead.

When I’m old, and you’re long dead.
I’ll speak the words that my grandma said,
She said, “Pride is good, but it can’t buy bread.”
When I’m old, and you’re long dead.

When I’m old, and my singing voice is gone,
I’ll stare in silence as the morning dawns.
I’ll tell my story, but not in song.
When I’m old, and my singing voice is gone.

When I’m old, if my mind’s still sharp,
I’ll pick my uke and my autoharp.
I’ll play for myself and the creatures of the dark
When I’m old, if my mind’s still sharp.

When I’m old, and health and beauty decline,
I'll turn my eye to the treasure inside,
And give it all away before I die
When I'm old and health beauty decline.
