Lyrics
Good Ol' Boy
W-Larry M Clark BMI P-ELLEMSEE MUSIC BMI larrymyrtus@yahoo.com
VERSE 1
When I was in my younger age, I'd sit on the beach like it was a stage
I'd admire all the pretty girls that came by with a smile
I'd give compliments with joy, they'd say "He's just a good ol' boy"
And sometimes sit and chat with me awhile
VERSE 2
Then I reached my middle years, I'd offer pretty girls ice cold beers
They'd look at me and tell me not to bother
When they refused, I'd ask them why, then they'd usually reply
You remind me too much of my Father
CHORUS
I used to be a Good Ol' Boy, now I'm becoming a Dirty Ol' Man
I like to gaze at the pretty girls as they stroll by on the sand
I smile at them and say "Hello" and check out their all-over tan
I used to be a Good Ol' Boy, but I'm becoming a Dirty Ol' Man
VERSE 3
When I join the senior status, pretty girls'll always be mad at us
Just "Dirty Old Men" out looking for a thrill
Like an old dog chasing a car, If I caught one, I wouldn't get far
I probably couldn't afford the little blue pill
REPEAT CHORUS
