Old Man Time Lyrics

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.
