Old Man - Chris Knight

Got a old horse

Run loose on the farm

Like a big dog

Don’t do no harm

And i live down

A dead end track

Me and my horse

And them chickens out back

Raised five kids

They’ve all up and gone

Came up rough

Not a one went wrong

When the old woman died

They scattered in the wind

And i never know

When i’ll see em again

I’m an old man

Done all i can

I been working this land

Since i was 24

I’m an old man

Ain’t a whole lot going on around here anymore

Had an old dog

Lived 15 years

Train got his leg

Coon got his ear

He loved to hunt

He loved to fight

The way i used to be

On saturday night

Repeat chorus

I still work

A good half a day

Plant a little corn

Cut a little hay

Don’t want a die

Untill i’ve lived too long

They’ll sell this place

Whenever i’m gone

I miss my sweetheart so

And they way she used to smile

I miss them kids of mine

Runnin wild

When daylight fades

In late afternoon

Bout all i know is

It was gone to soon

Repeat chorus

Ain’t a whole log goin on around her anymore

Ain’t a whole lot going on around her any more
