The Old Country Songtext
von Georgia Mancio

Hey you old man sittin′
By the lonesome road
It's ′bout time you're quittin'
Life′s old tiresome load
You′re so sad and lonely
Got no family
Just an old man from some old country
You ain't sired no children
Ain′t none by your side
You left all your women
Ain't you satisfied?
Don′t just sit there clingin'
To a memory


Of some love left in some old country
Don′t nobody need you old man
'Cause nobody knows your name
Nobody even whispers
What a dog-gone shame
So the cold grim reaper
Has no simpathy
You won't see your homeland
′Cept through me
You won′t see your homeland
'Cept through me
You won′t see your homeland
'Cept through me
