[00:17.94] I'm an old man now, I can't do nothing
[00:21.95] Young folks don't pay me no mind
[00:32.89] But in my day I sure was something
[00:40.34] Before I felt the heavy hand of time
[00:48.07]
[00:56.97] I'm an old man now, I'm bound for glory
[01:08.48] Time to lay these burdens down
[01:15.47] Had enough of this old world of worry
[01:22.85] Gonna trade my troubles for a crown
[01:32.49] I will make my way across the fields of cotton
[01:40.48] And wade through muddy waters one last time
[01:49.76] And in my dreams I come out clean
[01:53.95] When I reach the other side
[01:57.99] Waste away the sunsets where rainbows never die
[02:05.13]
[02:21.62] I've got on last thing to do
[02:24.15] One more mile before I'm through
[02:28.06] Casting off these earthly chains
[02:32.69] Going where there's no more pain
[02:53.51] I will make my way across the fields of cotton
[03:01.92] And wade through muddy waters one last time
[03:10.15] And in my dreams I come out clean
[03:15.10] When I reach the other side
[03:18.08] Waste away the sunsets where rainbows never die
[03:25.68]
[03:33.20] I'm an old man now, can't do nothing
[03:39.53] Young folks don't pay me no mind

I'm an old man now, I can't do nothing
Young folks don't pay me no mind
But in my day I sure was something
Before I felt the heavy hand of time
I'm an old man now, I'm bound for glory
Time to lay these burdens down
Had enough of this old world of worry
Gonna trade my troubles for a crown
I will make my way across the fields of cotton
And wade through muddy waters one last time
And in my dreams I come out clean
When I reach the other side
Waste away the sunsets where rainbows never die
I've got on last thing to do
One more mile before I'm through
Casting off these earthly chains
Going where there's no more pain
I will make my way across the fields of cotton
And wade through muddy waters one last time
And in my dreams I come out clean
When I reach the other side
Waste away the sunsets where rainbows never die
I'm an old man now, can't do nothing
Young folks don't pay me no mind
