Old Folks - Ronnie Milsap[00:00:00]
He's always up and out of bed[00:00:16]
Before the morning comes[00:00:19]
He mumbles and he grumbles[00:00:23]
About all that must be done[00:00:27]
There's eighty years of memories[00:00:31]
That rattle in his head[00:00:35]
Whiskey and cigars that[00:00:39]
He keeps stashed beside his bed[00:00:42]
He believes the world went straight to hell[00:00:46]
When Brooklyn lost the Dodgers[00:00:50]
Some say that he's lost his mind[00:00:54]
Some call him an old codger[00:00:58]
Oh but he's just old folks old folks[00:01:02]
Blessed is the child of yesterday[00:01:12]
Love those old folks[00:01:20]
And with a little luck[00:01:27]
And the lord to see us through[00:01:29]
One day we will be old folks too[00:01:35]
She used to bake the sweetest pies[00:01:51]
I swear I ever ate[00:01:55]
I'd steal the batter from the bowl[00:01:59]
'Cause I could never wait[00:02:03]
But now her hands are bent and sore;[00:02:08]
Arthritis rages wild[00:02:11]
But you would never know[00:02:15]
They hurt the way she always smiles[00:02:17]
She believes the world is good and kind[00:02:22]
But would love warmer weather[00:02:26]
And her grandkids are perfect though[00:02:30]
Sometimes they forget her[00:02:34]
All because she's old folks she's old folks[00:02:39]
Blessed is the child of yesterday[00:02:47]
Love those old folks[00:02:55]
And with a little luck[00:03:03]
And the lord to see us through[00:03:05]
One day we will be old folks too[00:03:11]
Oh with a little luck[00:03:24]
And the lord to see us through[00:03:27]
One day we will be old folks too[00:03:33]
