"Old Men, Younger Women" lyrics

"Old Men, Younger Women"

Out with the old, in with the new
Trade your 44 for a 22
And hold them ladies like a gun
Always another "can't lose in love"
But it's easy come, best to let go
'Cause chasin' shots and cowgirls is a "no"

I learned all I need about livin'
Listenin' to old men and lovin' younger women

Save the preachin', save the prayer
Go cowboy up and grow a pair
Go buy her drinks and daisies by the dozens
Take it from me, don't hit on her cousin
The crazy one's always more fun
The coffee's best with the cigarette and Honey Bun

And younger women wear hearts on their sleeves
And old men tell you what they think
What you doin' wrong, how to make love right
How to take the lead, come from behind

I learned all I need about livin'
Listenin' to old men and lovin' younger women

Days go slow, years go fast
So, cut the brakes and lay on the gas
Can't see around the corner 'til you been around the block
Keep your head out the sand, build on a rock
Don't ever get above that bottom shelf
When it's Heaven-sent, don't put it through hell

And younger women wear hearts on their sleeves
And old men tell you what they think
What you doin' wrong, not to fall too far
How to take the lead when you play guitar

Oh, pity

Now I learned all I need about livin'
Listenin' to old men and lovin' younger women
You learned all you need about livin'
Listenin' to old men and lovin' younger women
