Walter Martin - Old as Hell lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh well, I'm old as hell I'm supposed to be wiser but I can't tell My life's been a cherry pie But I'd like a couple more years Before I say goodbye [Chorus 1] A couple more stormy Sunday mornings Eating bacon and eggs With my old girl with the silver curls And the long long shiny legs So here's my prayer to the man upstairs I hope he's listening Throw a couple more years, Lord, down to me [Instrumental break] [Chorus] 'Cause I'd miss those bar fights on Saturday night And I'd even miss the pain Of waking up with both eyes swollen shut My money gone again So here's another prayer to the man upstairs This time I'm down on my knees Gimme a little more time, Lord, if you please [Verse 2] Oh well, I'm old as hell I'm supposed to be wiser but I can't tell My life's been a cherry pie But I'd like a couple more years Before I up and die
