When I'm Gray Songtext
von Johnny Cash

When a rockin′ chair is all that moves me
And a walkin' cane is all I want to lean on
When the kids are grown and on
their own and like birds have flown away
Will you still love me when I′m gray

When conversation's down to the weather
And the runnin' of the mail is a real big deal
When I love you sets my mind at least every other day
Will you still love me when I′m gray


When I look at you I know I′ll always love you
Though the years may make my memories fade at times

When my body's broken down, can I count on you to stay
Will you still love me when I′m gray


When the thought of a cup of coffee in the morning
Does strange things to my body and my mind
And all my arms can reach for is the place where my pills lay
Will you still love me when I'm gray
When I look at you I know I′ll always love you
Though the years may make my memories fade at times
When my body's broken down, can I count on you to stay
Will you still love me when I′m gray
Will you still love me when I'm gray
