I'm an old, old man

My back hurts, my knees ache

And I'm tired all the time

I feed the dogs because my wife is dead

I wish I did not take my youth for granted

I'm an old, old man

My hands are weak, my skin is thin

I can't ride my bike anymore

I swallow my pills and my pride alike

I feel useless, I feel dumb

I'm an old, old man

My bones are crumbling, my hair is light

And I hate watching daytime TV

The world is changing and I can't keep up

Nobody needs me these days

The world is changing and I can't keep up

Nobody needs me these days
