Songtext von C'mon Sixty Five

Somewhere on the old Kern River there's an old cane pole That waits for me patiently this city job might drag me down But one fine day I'm gonna be set free wait and see And then I'm gonna go down to where the waters touch the sky Where the old men's laughter goes like a lullaby Sixty five c'mon sixty five it's a sin to waste my life away But I can't wait till I'm sixty five c'mon sixty five There's a gold watch if I get out alive past sixty five Now somewhere in my memories I recall a boy Seventeen full of dreams dreams and life just stripped away A layer at a time now what's left ain't hardly me Oh but I saved up a little here and there to get me by Enough to mend my ragged wings and once again I'll fly Sixty five c'mon sixty five it's a sin to waste my life away But I can't wait till I'm sixty five c'mon sixty five Lord the object of the games is to survive past sixty five I've heard it said that hard work never did a body's body Any harm well they were wrong cause all these years of lifting things I should of left alone took their toll my will was strong And the day that I walk out of here I'll hold my head up high Then I'll pawn this stupid watch and kiss thirty years goodbye Now somewhere on the old Kern River there's an old cane pole That waits for me patiently
