Old Man Time Lyrics

Old man time, he’s so mean

Meanest man you’ve ever seen

He gives you youth; then he steals it away

He takes your nice pretty hair; turns it gray

He makes you rich, makes you poor; he’ a dog!

All your dreams and your schemes aint worth a dime

So have a good time every day, cuz you’ll never get away

From old man, old man time

Old man time, that boog-a-boo

Every year, he changes you

He bends your back, dims your eyes, you see less

You quake and shake and when he’s through, you’re a mess

Makes you fat, thin or tall he plays tricks on us all

Every year, he changes you; no sense or rhyme

He gives you beauty charm and grace

Then puts wrinkles on your face

That’s old man, old man time…

But there’s one thing he can’t change

Love that’s true stays the same

It lives on, on and on in any climb

So you don't ever have to fret

Fall in love and you‘ll forget

That’s old man, old man time…

Yes old man, old man time.
