[Verse] Old man sittin' on the porch Lookin' at the sky Wrinkled hands with tales to tell Twinkle in his eye Echoes of laughter Memories in the wind Heart of gold A life well lived No need to pretend [Verse 2] Mornings with the sunrise Coffee in his hands Harmonica hummin' Playin' simple bands Neighbors wave as they pass by The dog gives a bark Old man's stories Sparklin' after dark [Chorus] He's a happy old man With a lifetime of views Family and friends Tapestry of hues Nothin' better to do But to love and to live Old man reminds us Of the joy life's meant to give [Verse 3] Children on his lap Tales from yesteryears Unpolished truths Shared with joyful tears Guitar strums softly Under the starlit sky Old man hums a tune Nobody questions why [Verse 4] Time flows like a river But he stands so still Memories of the wilds Echo on that hill Hands may be shaky But his spirit is strong Old man keeps singin' Life's faithful song [Bridge] Broken-in boots that have wandered so far Stories of the past Like a mason jar Filled with moments Both bitter and sweet Old man walking With dust on his feet
