The Old Man
« on: May 17, 2019, 07:09:13 PM »
i heard a nice thing the other day about a new country song
it seems a country singer was playing golf with Clint Eastwood, and Clint mentioned he was 88, the country singer found it hard to believe, How do you do it Clint, you dont act like an 88 year old, Clint smiled and told himi 'Every morning when i waken, and stretch i feel 88, but then i hear the old man knocking on my door, and do you know what?.... i dont let him in, i dont want to be an old man, so my secret is when that old man knocks on your door.... just dont let him in....it is now a song 'dont let the old man in' i think its called
but to you elderly folks its sound advice...

Or the old woman Crabby! Great advice. 🙂
Just because you’re offended doesn’t mean you’re right.

Toby Keith was mentored by Merle Haggard & Willie Nelson when he was starting out as a country singer.

i remember when my son was four, i disowned him and sent him to bed
and as he climbed the stairs he sang "I'm nobodies Child, I'm no-o-bodies Child, i am like a flower, just growing wild" i'm not ashamed to admit it made me cry... i went up and cuddled him...
