“Old Hippie“
He turned thirty-five last Sunday
In his hair he found some gray
But he still ain’t changed his lifestyle
He likes it better the old way
So he grows a little garden in the back yard by the fence
He’s consuming what he’s growing nowadays in self defense
He get’s out there in the twilight zone
Sometimes when it just don’t make no sense
He gets off on country music
Cause disco left him cold
He’s got young friends into new wave
But he’s just too friggin’ old
And he dreams at night of Woodstock and the day John Lennon died
How the music made him happy and the silence made him cry
Yeah he thinks of John sometimes
And he has to wonder why
[Chorus:]
He’s an old hippie and he don’t know what to do
