Old Town Blues

To my aching glow

You got a hold of me now

How you rendered slow

But harder than hell to my ground

I'm looking for my old mans' shoes

I'm kicking off these old town blues

Just don't leave me here

Cos' I just won't survive

There's a raven hovering

But he's keeping me alive

I've known him all my life

He's the spirit of a young man mourning

But like the shadow of a carving knife

He's not the danger but the warning sign

And we're kicking off easy

Hey

I can't seem to move

I'm paralysed

I'm chocking on my holy mood

Cos I wanna be an old man too

I wanna be a role model to my kids

I wanna teach them how to love

But you gotta show me how to live

And we're kicking off easy
