Been around for eighty summers, some were winners and some were bummmers, I loved them all.

Once I was young and full of fun like you, I had a million dreams and some came true,
C G G C G
You can't win 'em all.
CHORUS:
D Am G/B C
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, and grey and wrinkled and I can't be trusted.
G G C G
Just a dirty old man.

As I look back on the younger years, I shared your hopes and I shared your fears,

Yes I made that scene.
G C
My parents never understood and I guess that I felt that they never would,
G G C G
You know what I mean.
CHORUS:
D Am G/B C
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, and grey and wrinkled and I can't be trusted.

Just lookin' around,

And if some young folks should pass you by,
C G G C G
Don't say 'hello', don't even wave 'hi', they'll only put you down.
CHORUS:

Because you're old and tired, bent and busted, you're grey and wrinkled and can't be trusted.

Just a dirty old man.
