Been around for eighty summers, some were winners and some were bummmers, I loved them all.
GC
Once I was young and full of fun like you, I had a million dreams and some came true,
CGGCG
You can't win 'em all.
CHORUS:
DAmG/BC
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, and grey and wrinkled and I can't be trusted.
GGCG
Just a dirty old man.
GC
As I look back on the younger years, I shared your hopes and I shared your fears,
GGCG
Yes I made that scene.
GC
My parents never understood and I guess that I felt that they never would,
GGCG
You know what I mean.
CHORUS:
DAmG/BC
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, and grey and wrinkled and I can't be trusted.
GGCG
Just a dirty old man.
GC
Well, I've done some livin' in this life of mine,I've laughed and loved in the summertime,
GGCG
I remember it well.
GC
There was lips to kiss, and hands to hold. and I never thought I would get very old
GGCG
But here I am.
CHORUS:
DAmG/BC
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, and grey and wrinkled and I can't be trusted.
GGCG
Just a dirty old man.
GC
But you, you wait fifty years or so, you'll be standing on the corner with no place to go,
GGCG
Just lookin' around,
G
And if some young folks should pass you by,
CGGCG
Don't say 'hello', don't even wave 'hi', they'll only put you down.
CHORUS:
DAmG/BC
Because you're old and tired, bent and busted, you're grey and wrinkled and can't be trusted.
GGCG
Just a dirty old man.
