Now I am old, oh, who will care for me?
My dear old friend, you know, I will care for thee
If I should fall, oh, who will carry me?
My dear old friend, you know I will carry thee
If I am hungry, who will feed me?
My dear old friend, you know I will feed thee
If I am cold, oh, who will warm me?
My dear old friend, you know I will warm thee
If I should cry, oh, who will comfort me?
My dear old friend, you know I will comfort thee
If I am lonely, who will sit be me?
My dear old friend, you know I will sit by thee
If I am silent, who will hear me?
My dear old friend, you know I will hear thee
If I am angry, will you leave me?
My dear old friend, I'll never leave thee
And when I die, oh, who will bury me?
My dear old friend, you know I will bury thee
And when I'm gone, oh, who will mourn me?
My dear old friend, you know I will mourn thee
