An old man stood on the corner and watched some young 
folks come his way.They had youthful smilin faces, 
Prompted that old man to say, 'Howdy, kids. How ya been 
doin'? Geez it sure is a hell of a day.' They just 
stared, looked him up and down and walked on along the 
way.The old man shook his head passed his fingers thru 
hair so gray. As those kids walked down the street, I 
thought I heard the old man say.....
been around for 80 summers, some were winners and some 
were bummmers, I've loved'em all. Once I was young and 
full of fun like you, I had a million dreams and some 
came true, you can't win em all.
chorus.......
Now I'm old and tired, bent and busted, gray and 
wrinkled and I can't be trusted. Just a dirty old man.
as I look back on the younger years, you shared your 
hopes and you shared your fears, Yes I made that scene.
Parents, never understood and I guess that I felt that 
they never would, do you know what I mean?
Well, I've done some livin' in this live of mine,I've 
laughed and loved in the summertime, I remember it 
well.
well there was lips to kiss, and hands to hold. and I 
never thought I would get very old. andlook at here I 
am. Here I'm ..... chorus
and you, you wait 50 years or so, you'll be standing on 
the corner with no place to go, just a lookin' around, 
and some young folks'll pass you by, don't say hello, 
don't even wave hi, they'll only put you down.
Chorus
chorus
look at me just a dirty old man
