Lyrics:
When you were mine my old true love
Then your head lay on my breast
You could make me believe by the falling of your arm
That the sun rose up in
uh (so I cut away the pain)
Got it swimming in my veins (got it swimming in my veins)
Now my mind is outta place, yeah, uh (now my mind is outta
that I didn't leave alone
Somebody lying under every stone
Everything that a man could need
In a bag down by my knee
That looks good, this ain't got
this poor unfortunate soul,
And the fight she is waging against sin,
That old devil Booze has changed her
Into the unsightly person you see before
known by the name of old Johnny Dhu
Of all the trade's that's going, sure begging is the best
For when a man is tired, he can sit down and rest
He can beg
I didn't leave alone
Somebody lying under every stone
Everything that a man could need
In a bag down by my knee
That looks good, this ain't got
Hello my friends
So happy to see you again
I was so alone
All by myself I just couldn't make it
Have you heard baby what's the wind blown round
Hello my friends
So happy to see you again
I was so alone
All by myself I just couldn't make it
Have you heard baby what's the wind blown round
Hello my friends
So happy to see you again
I was so alone
All by myself I just couldn't make it
Have you heard baby what's the wind blown round
I'm in love with a gambling man
Tell me my dear daughter
How can you treat me so?
Save your poor old mother
And with the gambler drove
Mother oh dear
around
That no one named Corey's ever lived in this town
So I chided the old man 'bout the truth that I had heard
He smiled and said reality is only
she's worth much more by far
Cause I never had a better friend
Than that old beat up guitar
She didn't look like too much
Just a Roy Smeck Stage
Well, it's always been my nature to take chances
My right hand drawing back while my left hand advances
Where the current is strong and the monkey
My old man is a bad man, but
I can't deny the way he holds my hand
And he grabs me, he has me by my heart
He doesn't mind I have a Las Vegas past
When it happened he walked through all the estates, from
Manchester right to, er, Newcastle. In Darlington, helped an old
Man on his own chase some
lonely, or a love that's grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
When my life is ended, my
back 'n' forth, that's my only destination
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me
Old
made all of my dreams come true
I toured the world, made platinum albums and I still stayed true
It's so much to catch up on now as I think out loud
Gonna put my good foot forward,
And stop being influenced by fools.
So much oppression,
Can't keep track of it no more.
So much oppression,
Can't
to a flame
So rattle my bones all over the stones
I'm only a beggar-man whom nobody owns
Oh, see how words as old as sin
Fit me like a glove
I'm here
to Melissa
Then Melissa got my number, started sendin' me pictures
In all type of different positions, man this bitch on a mission
Listen, a man is a man, gon'
Old man cotton won't let me make a nickel
Till I get it to a cotton gin
So I bent my back till I think it's gonna break
Try to keep a thinkin' how much
feet
In her heart is love but I'm the only mortal man
Who's allowed to kiss my Marianne
Don't rush me
All day, all night, Marianne
Down by
think 'em
That mean I forgot better shit than you ever thought of
Damn, is he really that caught up?
I ask if you talked about classics, do my name get
Discuss these so is my old man by melissa manchester Lyrics with the community:
