Paxton, Tom - Hush Old Man Lyrics
Hush old man, you sour old man
You and your crabbin' are gettin' old
The Lord himself couldn't make you smile
The weather is always to too hot or too cold
Cool drink of water would sure taste nice
I do believe the well's gone bad
Or maybe you put in too much ice
Hush old man, you sour old man
Don't start up with the same complaints
Drink it just like the young folks do
I swear you'd rile a trial of saints
Believe I'd like to sleep outdoors
Move my bed where the moon don't shine
Can't fall asleep in the bright moonlight
Hush old man, you sour old man
I'll move your bed and you'll sleep real tight
Moonlight'll be no problem at all
A little moonshine and you'll sleep all night
Open the door and let me in
Can't quit shakin' or catch my breath
Timberwolves come south for food
Like they scared me to death
Hush old man, you sour old man
Swear you'll drive me off the place
Ain't been wolves for fifty years
But a Bluetick Hound just lickin' your face
I'm an old man sure; I'm old and sour
Crosses to bear and I don't know why
Day by day and hour by hour
Too mean to live, too scared to die
Hush old man, you sour old man
I can't explain it; no-one can
It's hard for me to speak of love
So I won't - but stick around old man
