Текст песни My Old Man

The old man is laughing tonight He's young beyond his fears But then the smile drops from his eyes And we all wind up in tears The old man's crying tonight 'Cause it all happened so fast He's frightened by the future Embarrassed by the past So let him be who he wants to be 'Cause he ain't ever gonna be young again And let him see who he needs to see 'Cause he never had too many friends And ask him how he remembers me 'Cause I want to know where I stand How I love my old man The old man's restless tonight Just trying to kill his pain He believes what he says he believes But that don't make him a saint The old man's lonesome tonight And he just wants to go home All those fools who stand in his way Why can't they leave him alone So let him be who he wants to be 'Cause he ain't ever gonna be young again And let him see who he needs to see 'Cause he never had too many friends And ask how he remembers me 'Cause I want to know where I stand How I love my old man
