Old Fool - Yarn

When I was a younger man

I knew everything

Somewhere along the way

I don’t know when

Forgot all I knew

Even you

I should be wiser now

But that ain’t true

When I was a younger man

I could do anything

Throw me a line and I’d reel one in

Had a lot to prove

And I’d follow through

I should be stronger now

But that ain’t true

What is it 'bout this old man?

That can’t win again

Did I done use up all my luck

And cool down so much I can’t stand?

What is it 'bout this old fool?

That can’t rise above

Just pick myself up

And win again

When I was a younger man

I caught all the breaks

Came out on the winning end

Of a thousand bad choices made

I had all the luck

And could scam a buck

I should be richer now

But I’m not

What is it 'bout this old man?

That can’t win again

Did I done use up all my luck

And cool down so much I can’t stand?

What is it 'bout this old fool?

That can’t rise above

Just pick myself up

And win again
