Lyrics
Old Songman HC Holbert, BMI/ Rory Ruff, ASCAP I met him in a Texas coastal town He was a carpenter and songman Who was seldom down He built structures strong and true And sang songs of hope, love, and the blues I loved to watch that old man sing and play In those old honky tonks down by the bay (2nd Verse) He played blues on an old fender strat And he always wore a straw cowboy hat Boots on and tappin his toe The old man always put on a good show He said dont worry if you aint always right Cuz sometimes being wrong aint a crime (Chorus) After another drag and another drink He would play a song That would make me think How lucky I am to hear him play In those old honky tonks down by the bay He'd sing about love, peace and family Leaving behind good memories And he will leave so many behind When he goes to that Honky Tonk in the sky (3rd Verse) The old man isnt with us anymore He's singing now up on heavens shores He wouldnt want you to cry Just remember how he touched your life With his sweet words and melodies Life is short we dont have long When your down just sing a song Dont sweat the little things Work hard and achieve your dreams In youth we yearn but with Each breath we learn From the words of the old songman
