When I went to the old folks home today
All my worries seemed to pass away
And it didn't take me very long to see
It's silly things that been worryin' me
It's funny all the things you can realize
Just by lookin' straight into an old man's eyes
And it's funny for him to see, I suppose
All the things a young man thinks he knows
I took out my guitar and played a song
And all the old folks began to sing along
We sang a tune about flyin' away
When I went to the old folks home today
When I went to the old folks home today
All my worries seemed to pass away
And it didn't take me very long to see
It's silly things that been worryin' me
When I went to the old folks home today
