Want to tell ya a story that happened to me There was this old man started chattin' with me He sat by himself on the side of the road A cowboy hat and them pointed toes He said, hey son what do ya do Ya better pay attention when I'm talkin' to you I've been around here for a long, long time Could have bought this land for damn near a dime (Right over there past that gas station over there, see it) So I headed on over, leaned against his truck And ya better hear me out or you're shit outta luck I've been through times that you wouldn't believe It makes a man feel about a hundred and three Again he asked, what do ya do I can't imagine by lookin' at you Boy, things have changed since way back when I wish that I was back in my teens again I said hey, I said hey, to what the old man said So we hopped in his truck, went for a ride He talked about things before I was alive Ya know, that used to be a big mining town My brother and I brought that mountain down My oh my, look how they built over there Have ya ever thought about cutting that hair Ya never told me what do ya do Tell me kid, are ya just passing through You say hey, you say hey, from what the old man said So I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried Yeah, I tried to speak my piece So, low and behold when all was told the only listening one was me So I tried and I tried and I tried and I tried Yeah, I tried to break on through So, low and behold when all was told the stubburn one was he So the moral of the story is ya gotta learn a lesson Especially from a man who got a Smith and Wesson Ya better learn with your ears and not with your eyes Or you'll be dealt a big surprise I said hey, I said hey To what the old man said >From what he said now
