Leapt into an open field of angry men and parts,
Have you decided what to bring back to the start?
It’s not forgotten but left behind to rot,
Is that all that you have got?
Feel like an escapee, but running from the things you haven’t got,
You might as well take them because they’re all just dirty cops,
Lucky you’re fit now, it’s not a time to trot,
Keep a hold of what you’ve got.
Oh, old man, old man,
Oh, old man, old man,
Old man
Lost in the atmosphere of all your frozen words,
Not even close to the hardest part,
Have you forgotten who carved the open road,
Run away to your fallen history.
Oh, old man, old man,
Oh, old man, old man,
Oh, old man, old man,
Oh, old man, old man,
Old man
I did not make you what you are,
I did not make you, I did not make you what you are,
I did not make you, I did not make you what you are,
I did not make you, I did not make you what you are old man.
Oh, old man, old man,
Oh, old man, old man,
Oh, old man, old man,
Oh, old man, old man,
Old man
I did not make you what you are.
