Testo The Old Man's Song

If they ask you where the old man's gone You may say you saw me leaving If they ask you did I crawl You may say that I was riding If they ask you was I bent with care And did I hang my head in sorrow You may say that I rode tall Looking forward to tomorrow If they ask you did I travel light With no provisions close beside me Say my saddle bags are filled With all the dreams I need to guide me All you ask of me is questions Living in the past they say Why should I have all the answers? Let me make my way Did they laugh and say he's lost his mind And did they ever stop to wonder Just what the fool would hope to find On the road that leads to yonder?
