Old Ways

Old ways, it sure is hard to change

Come what may

It's hard to teach a dinosaur a new trick

Lately I've been finding out

I'm set in my ways

Old ways, can be your ball and chain



Oh, I'm gonna stop that grass

And give up all this drinking

Really gonna make my life last

Clean up my whole way of living

Up until the party last night

I was a different man

But old ways got in the way again



The economy was getting so bad

I had to lay myself off

Well working was a habit I had

So I kept showin' up anyway

Then one day things turned around

I got my back pay

Old ways comin' through again



I got old ways

I got old ways

Old ways

I got old ways ...
