This old road don’t seem to end
This old dog won’t hunt
My old gal’s gone completely round the bend
Maybe it’s time for me to punt
But there’s a halo round the moon tonight
It’s got me wondering what tomorrow’s gonna do
This old heart’s seen better days
This old gun won’t shoot
My get up and go has gone and made a getaway
Ought to give myself the boot
But there’s been lightening on the ridge tonight
And I hate to miss a good thunderstorm
(chorus)
When I’m feeling like the day’s too long, I’m too far gone
The night puts on a magic show right here in my front lawn
Like it’s telling me I got to keep on keeping on
And I start singing this old song
(inst verse)
I’m the straw that stirs the Milky Way
And I challenge any man to prove me wrong
(chorus)
These old bones make too much noise
This old guitar won’t tune
Some of the best of the good old boys
Are calling from the dark side of the moon
But there’s a firefly jamboree tonight
Old coyote’s gonna sing his lonesome blues
(chorus)
This old song don't seem to end
