Lyrics:
To Old Too Change
words/music Billy Jim Baker BMI, Bozo Row Music
Growing grey around the temples...You'll see days when I won't shave
Got a habit of tripping over ripples...Watching them roll into waves
YOU SEE, I'VE BEEN TOO LONG RIDING THE RANGE...RUNNING WILD WITHOUT REINS
ALWAYS TRAVELING AGAINST THE GRAIN...PRETTY GIRLS DESERVE BETTER
BUT I'M TOO OLD TO CHANGE
Can't say I'm sorry bout the life I led...Or the places I ran off to see
I don't make excuses if the sun comes up...But going home never dawns on me
CHORUS
Better get gone and grow old graceful...As graceful as wrong can be
But as I grow older, I'll look over my shoulder
And smile for what you meant to me
CHORUS
