Glad Old Man

from Hope by Andrew Calhoun

/

lyrics

I'm gonna be a glad old man
I'm gonna be a glad old man
Gonna sit on the porch and sing a sad song
And I'm gonna be a glad old man

I'm gonna have two doxen grandkids
Bangin' on the baby grand
But I won't take them to Disneyworld
Nor never to Disneyland

Gonna take 'em out in a rowboat
On a sweet late summer day
Gonna float around and say nothin'
'cause I got nothing better to say

I won't watch no TV
And I won't listen to the news
And I won't go to the doctor
'cause I got better things to do

I'm gonna plant 8 million flowers
Fix supper for the local mutts
I'm gonna sit on the toilet for hours
And drive my old lady nuts

I'll rest on the couch all afternoon
She can tell the guests I'm sick
But if she wants to get right to sleep at night
She'll have to beat me off with a stick

I'll be fond of my old friend
And she'll be fond of me
And I'll love her more at 94
Than I did at 93
