now all i have is memories and this poor country home
Kids and Daddy have long been gone for one reason or another
family all passed on but i guess i have a distant brother
I hear people talk about being alone but they dont live like this
cold and lonely in the darkness listening to the hard rain hiss
The last ten years i have had to do things for myself as I saw fit
some of the things i've had to do wasn't really worth a flip
But still, I am here and alive and still able to take care of myself
though times have been hard and i claim no great wealth
Men don't pay me much mind anymore cause i am not young
but most men i've seen lately are lazy as an old bum
Perhaps I have grown too set in my ways and will remain single
I am not one to go out dancing and forgot how to mingle
Sitting on the front porch watching the world go by me
seems like thats all there is left in this world for me to see
But who knows maybe things will change one bright day
maybe the Lord will come and show me a better way
I just hope i am able to last that long in this life of mine
just make me happy again and let me taste the sweet wine
