Old Ways — текст песни (Neil Young)

Old ways,
it sure is hard
to change `em
Come what may
It`s hard to teach
a dinosaur a new trick
Lately I`ve been finding out
I`m set in my ways
Old ways,
can be your ball
and chain.

Oh, I`m gonna stop that grass
And give up all this drinking
Really gonna make my life last
Clean up my whole way of living
Up until the party last night
I was a different man
But old ways
got their way again.

The economy was getting so bad
I had to lay myself off
Well, working was a habit I had
So I kept showin` up anyway
Then one day
things turned around
I got my back pay
Old ways
comin` through again.

I got old ways.
