Woke up this morning, combed my hair
Then I realized I wasn't going anywhere
So I come to the front porch and I sat in this chair
Now it's me and that fence post locked in a stare

I suppose it's lonely but that fly keeps buzzin' back
Wonder what he hasn't got that the thinks he don't have
A pack of fuzzy memories getting dimmer every day
And a map of a circle leadin' right here every way

Well I think about Marge we were married a long, long timeg
But she's been gone a long, long time
And the kids I lost track of some while back
Think Sue is a stripper and John we lost to the crack

Well Old Frank came by a week or a month ago
And We sat here drinkin' beer until our chins were hanging low
A couple words passed then he stumbled off
These days when he goes he could be gone or lost

Well now nice folks bring smiles and them meals on wheels
TV said the president wants to Kill
Now Rich men always know what's good and well
But he can kiss my ass and go to straight hell

Well Korea wasn't my war of choice
Just another time that I had no voice
So I Fought and froze and then I came home
Sixty years of livin' I'm back in a foxhole on my own

And I'm gettin kind of old and I'm getting kind of gray
Well I Guess it's all right, no one remembers me anyway
Gonna sit here on this porch till I turn to stone 
Talkin' to myself so I don't feel so all alone 
Talkin' to myself like I'm not alone
Talkin' to myself like I'm not alone

Well there Ain't no shame in getting old so they say
But they are all young and having their day
When they're old and decrepit baby what about then?
Well will they wish they could blow away with the wind?
