There's an old man
in a La-Z-Boy
TV on a Western
Fast asleep
Grey in his hair
At least what's left
But the heart of a lion
Beatin' in his chest
And there's a little more slow
in his go
A little less rock in his roll
these days
But I remember him
ten feet tall and bulletproof
Throwin' me a ball in
cowboy boots
A whistle and the dogs
start runnin'
A whisper and Mama
starts blushin'
A wrench in his hand
And a beer in the other
God couldn't make a man
any tougher
And that "S" on his chest is
startin' to fade
But I'll always remember him
that way
I used to think
that he'd never gеt old
That kind of thing
was for regular Joes
And he triеs real hard
to put up a fight
But I guess time
is his kryptonite
'Cause I remember him
ten feet tall and bulletproof
Throwin' me a ball in
cowboy boots
A whistle and the dogs
start runnin'
A whisper and Mama
starts blushin'
A wrench in his hand
And a beer in the other
God couldn't make a man
any tougher
And that "S" on his chest is
startin' to fade
But I'll always remember him
that way
There's a little more slow
in his go
A little less rock in his roll
these days
But I remember him
ten feet tall and bulletproof
Throwin' me a ball in
cowboy boots
A whistle and the dogs
start runnin'
A whisper and Mama
starts blushin'
A wrench in his hand
And a beer in the other
God couldn't make a man
any tougher
And that "S" on his chest is
startin' to fade
But there's some things that
time can't erase
'Cause I'll always remember
him that way
