Old Bones - George Burns

Old bones inside an old raincoat

Old bones inside of old shoes

Old friends at the hotel

Come by to wish me well

And keep me up to date on all the old news

Sometimes I have an old whiskey

And I fall asleep in my chair

And I dream that I’m a man

Much younger than I am

I bet you’d think by now that I wouldn’t care

But I love life, I’d like to do it again

Though I might not be much more than I’ve ever been

Just to have the chance to turn back the hands

And let my life begin

Oh yeah, I’d like to do it again

It’s time for takin' it easy

It’s time for takin' it slow

Old bones don’t move so fast

As they did once in the past

Now if I have to run, I simply don’t go But I love life, I’d like to live it again

Though I might not be much more than I’ve ever been

Just to have the chance to turn back the hands

And let my life begin

Oh yeah, I’d like to do it again

Oh yeah, I’d like to do it again
