"Old Scarecrow" lyrics

"Old Scarecrow"

I ain't losin' sleep over your opinion
I ain't worried 'bout how you spend your time
If we could get back to livin' and let livin'
That would be about right for me and mine

Like an old scarecrow
Standin' in the sun
Day after day
His work ain't never done
I ain't ever gonna change my ways
Make my stand for the rest of my days

I don't care about this year's make and model
I was built to last and I'm runnin' fine
You're lookin' at a man
Who really don't give a damn
About them all tryin' to waste my precious time

Like an old scarecrow
Standin' in the sun
Day after day
His work ain't never done
I ain't ever gonna change my ways
Make my stand for the rest of my days

I might be a little ragged around my edges
I ain't straight and tall as I used to be
I look across this land and I look at these two hands
And I know there's someone watchin' over me

Like an old scarecrow
Standin' in the sun
Day after day
His work ain't never done
I ain't ever gonna change my ways
Make my stand for the rest of my days

Like an old scarecrow
Standin' in the sun
Day after day
His work ain't never done
I ain't ever gonna change my ways
I ain't ever gonna change my ways
I ain't ever gonna change my ways
Make my stand for the rest of my days
