Old Man Kicks
Traveling down that ghost town
Tumbling through the weeds
I'm nothing like a cowboy
And I haven't a gun to sling
I'm just an old man lost
In what's left of sanity
I'm wearing old kicks
On a dusty road ghost town
I've got a crack in my lips
From the sun beaten on down
I need a place to rest
But no one is around
I cannot find a bed
So I'll settle for a campground
I'm just an old man lost
In what's left of sanity
I found an old saloon
With a ghost serving whiskey
And he dared to impugn
Why I was so thirsty
He kept pouring more rounds
At my requests to hurt me
I was the only one in town
And like me it was emptied
I'm just an old man lost
In what's left of sanity
Drunken in walk
I fell into my cot
My fire burned out
So I laid in the dark
Staring at the stars
I was the loneliest scar
Lost in a ghost town
With vacant bazaars
I'm just an old old man
Lost
In what's left
Of Sanity
