This old hat's hung on the bedpost too long Forgotten like some used to be Remembered like a song That all the words are so easy to recall Imagine thatâ¦â¦this old hat It's seen day fade to night in an open sky Beneath the fury of the heavens Kept the rain out of my eyes Yet, somehow don't look as weathered as I This old hat This old hat's been down some dusty trails May not look as good as it did new The crown is stained, the brim is torn It's even been stepped on a time or two This old hat's just like an old friend Misplaced from time to time But it still fits They don't make 'em like they used to This old hat There was a time This old hat was in style 'Cause it was different then It turned a few heads for awhile But what the hell, I might try it on again This old hat's been on the bedpost way too long
