I've got golden memories
I've got silver threads winding through my hair
Oh baby
But I got good times
Enough to share
I ain't young
But I ain't old
I will keep you warm tonight against the cold
Oh baby
Don't that bitter wind
Honey don't you blow
Oh but I know
Old Father Time
He got a mean side on him
He gonna make me drink that wine
He gonna steal my life
He'll do it in time
You can't beat the devil
But you can rob that sucker blind
Oh my daddy
Was a gypsy
My mama was a honky tonker's dream
But me I just showed up
To spoil their scene
Yeah I did
Well I drink corn liquor
From a paper sack
I've had so much to smoke
My lungs are black
Oh baby
Don't that bitter wind
Honey don't you blow
Oh but I know
Old Father Time
He got a mean side on him
He gonna make me drink that wine
He gonna steal my life
He'll do it in time
You can't beat the devil
But you can rob that sucker blind
We get older
We get better
Like a fine ole Beaujolais
We get older
We get better
Every day
I've got golden memories
I've got silver threads winding through my hair
Oh baby
But I got good times
Enough to share
Oh baby
But I got good times
Enough to share
