The Wailin' Jennys

Old Man

Old man, look at my life, I'm a lot like you

Old man, take a look at my life

Twenty-four and I'm so much more

Live alone in a paradise, makes me think of two

Love lost at such a cost

Give me things that don't get lost

Like a coin that won't get tossed, rolling home to you

Old man, take a look at my life, I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me the whole day through

Oh, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true

Lullabies, look in your eyes

Run around the same old town

Doesn't mean that much to me, mean that much to you

I've been first and last

Look at how the time goes past

But I'm all alone at last, rolling home to you

Old man, take a look at my life, I'm a lot like you

I need someone to love me the whole day through

Oh, one look in my eyes and you can tell that's true

Old man, look at my life, I'm a lot like you
