[Verse 1]
Hey my old man, it's a long and wild country
It's getting older this time
Hey man old man, we're gonna get our things together
And see what's over my mind
And hey my old girl, there's a book I think you should read it
It's about you and I, we're getting old
And there's a bottle of cough syrup, in the cupboard if you need it
It'll help you sleep for years, I'm told
Cause soon you'll crawl, through my old house door
[Chorus]
My old son's got a heartache
It's bigger than Goliath's beard and a rocket to the sky
It'll break you into pieces, cause you never last forever
My God, don't you wonder why?
[Verse 2]
Hey my old boy, I can see your eyes for miles
They're like two birds flying in the sun
And your mom's on the front porch
Can you hear a name she's calling?
Better find out what she's running from
Cause soon you'll fall, it won't mean nothing at all
[Chorus]
My old son's got a heartache
It's bigger than Goliath's beard and a rocket to the sky
It'll break you into pieces, cause you never last forever
My God, don't you wonder why?
Oh, my old son's got a heartache
It's bigger than Goliath's beard and a rocket to the sky
It'll break you into pieces, cause you never last forever
My God, don't you wonder why?
