I went to a bar

To have a rest again

I saw him then

A smiling old man

Came rushing in

He sat down close to me

And soon I could see

He's older than it seemes to me

And the night moved on and I got no

Sleep

And the night moved on and I got no

Sleep

And the night moved on and I got no

Sleep

And the night moved on and I got no

Sleep

His furrowed face

Told a story of life

His restless eyes

Kept his face alive

His face alive

His tanned skin did not tell of his age

I could see

He's older than it seemed to me

He left the bar

Then he spoke to me

And I was captured

'cause now I could see

His way of life

He said little girl you'd better

Do what you want

Your life is too short to waste time
