Neil Young — Old Ways

[Verse] Old ways It sure is hard To change them 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 going to stop that grass And give up all this drinking Really going to 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 showing up anyway Then one day Things turned around I got my back pay Old ways Coming through again [Outro] I got old ways
