Old Hippie - The Bellamy Brothers[00:00:01]
He turned thirty five last sunday[00:00:08]
In his hair he found some gray[00:00:12]
But he still ain't changed his lifestyle[00:00:18]
He likes it better the old way[00:00:21]
So he grows a little garden in the back yard by the fence[00:00:27]
He's consuming what he's growing nowadays in self defense[00:00:32]
He get's out there in the twilight zone[00:00:36]
Sometimes when it just don't make no sense[00:00:39]
He gets off on country music[00:00:45]
Cause disco left him cold[00:00:49]
He's got young friends into new wave[00:00:55]
But he's just too friggin' old[00:00:59]
And he dreams at night of woodstock and the day[00:01:04]
John lennon died[00:01:07]
How the music made him happy and the silence made him cry[00:01:09]
Yeah he thinks of john sometimes[00:01:14]
And he has to wonder why[00:01:17]
He's an old hippie and he don't know what to do[00:01:22]
Should he hang on to the old[00:01:27]
Should he grab on to the new[00:01:30]
He's an old hippie his new life is just a bust[00:01:32]
He ain't trying to change nobody[00:01:36]
He's just trying real hard to adjust[00:01:39]
He was sure back in the sixties that everyone was hip[00:01:46]
Then they sent him off to vietnam on his senior trip[00:01:55]
And they forced him to become a man while he was still a boy[00:02:04]
And in each wave of tragedy he waited for the joy[00:02:09]
Now this world may change around him[00:02:13]
But he just can't change no more[00:02:17]
He's an old hippie and he don't know what to do[00:02:22]
Should he hang on to the old[00:02:27]
Should he grab on to the new[00:02:29]
He's an old hippie his new life is just a bust[00:02:32]
He ain't trying to change nobody[00:02:37]
He's just trying real hard to adjust[00:02:39]
Well he stays away a lot now from the parties and the clubs[00:02:46]
And he's thinking while he's joggin' around[00:02:55]
Sure is glad he quit the hard drugs[00:02:58]
Cause him and his kind get more endangered everyday[00:03:04]
And pretty soon the species will just up and fade away[00:03:09]
Like the smoke from that torpedo just up and fade away[00:03:14]
He's an old hippie and he don't know what to do[00:03:22]
Should he hang on to the old[00:03:27]
Should he grab on to the new[00:03:29]
He's an old hippie his new life is just a bust[00:03:32]
He ain't trying to change nobody[00:03:36]
He's just trying real hard to adjust[00:03:39]
He ain't trying to change nobody[00:03:45]
He's just trying real hard to adjust[00:03:48]
