Leon Russell - Never Too Old (To Hold Somebody) lyrics

Don't abandon life Don't step away Don't give up that tune That you never could play If you're folding your tent And the gas pipes groan If every bone rattles Through nights all alone Well you're tougher than leather No old burlap sack Not some hard scrabble weeds Growing up through the cracks Don't you know, you're never too old You're never too old to hold somebody Don't you know, you're never too old You're never too old to hold somebody You're never too old to hold somebody Don't think you've gone out Don't flicker and fade If you're gonna get lemons Then do what they say The wind makes you weary It knocks you around Logs on the fire Beats sun shining down But you're harder than nails No skinny old tack You're still sharp as a razor And I like you like that Don't you know, you're never too old You're never too old to hold somebody Don't you know, you're never too old You're never too old to hold somebody You're never too old to hold somebody I could bet on a horse But I'm betting on you You still got what it takes You got nothing, nothing to prove Don't you know, you're never too old You're never too old to hold somebody Don't you know, you're never too old You're never too old to hold somebody You're never too old to hold somebody
