Why not? I'm getting too old to care. Nobody I've played this for likes it...for one reason or another, but I like it. I think I'm finally making headway. It's probably the most honest thing I've "written"...ie made up, since I began making up tunes way back when...

Waitin’ to Die

Too many years ago, I was born In the middle of a winter storm The years have passed Like clouds floating by, Now I'm just An old man, Waitin’ to die

I've breathed enough Of your sweet air But like a statue I'm still sittin' here, I'll buy you a drink, If you'll listen to my lies, I'm just an old man Waitin’ to die

Had a son that I Lost in the war, For a country I don't believe in any more They gave us a folded flag While my wife shook and cried, Now I’m just an old man Waitin’ to die

The grandkids visit Once in a while, But they don't say much, That's not their style, I get confused And my doctor don't know why He thinks, I’m just an old man, Waitin’ to die

I sit on the lawn of this Nursing Home, And watch the fields where I Used to roam, Me and my Palomino How fast we'd ride Now I'm just an old man Waitin’ to die

I ask the Lord For one more day

Every night, when I kneel and pray Tonight the stars are shining In the western sky, Shining for an old man waitin’ to die Just for an old man, Waitin’ to die
