And the old man said "Son, I don't have long to live" He slowly raised his cup and he took a sip And the old man said "I fought a dang good fight" So I pulled up a chair and sat there half the night And the old man said "Don't take a single day for granted Love like there's no tomorrow Tattoo the seeds you planted Be a good friend and a brother Love your children and their mother And die by those living words in red" And the old man said "Money really ain't worth a dime" Then gave me his golden watch Said, "It's all borrowed time" And the old man said "If I could do it all again I'd spend more time loving her and a little more time fishing" And the old man said "Don't take a single day for granted Love like there's no tomorrow Tattoo the seeds you planted Be a good friend and a brother Love your children and their mother And die by those living words in red" And the old man said "Don't build walls around your heart Never shackle up your soul Love is the only thing that you'll take with you when you go Always be quick to forgive Forever slow to throw stones Just like a flash, life is a dash between the girth and the bones" And the old man said "Son I can see the light" Then he took my hand and he squeezed it tight The last thing the old man said "Don't you dare be scared of death It's only the beginning" Then he took his last breath
