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 seems to me
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
