My Grandpa Is Old Too!

My Grandpa Is Old Too! - Lightnin' Hopkins

I want all you young people to know what to do

Leave my grandpa alone 'cause he done got old too

That's my grandpa that's my grandpa

That's my grandpa sweetest man I ever saw

Mama told me oh day of old

Your grandpa stood by tell this is told

Now don't bother my grandpa 'cause he done got old too

I ain't jivin' I ain't jokin'

Ain't gonna never bother you

My grandpa he shouts for joy

Been takin' care of me ever since I was a boy

He getting old now

And he really is

Really I know it 'cause I'm old myself

My grandpa says son take me a walkin'

Say I wanna go where the coolest place you know is

I say why grandpa

'Cause grandpa's getting old

Tell all you people done want you to understand

Grandpa once have been a young man

He getting old now

He's getting to be an old man

He can't remember 'morrow but he still understands

He look at me and he say what's this all about

Give me my pipe son and he had it in his mouth

He's an old man you know he don't got the mind

You see he don't hardly know what he's doing

But he's still my grandpa

But he ain't nothin' else to turn

Tell all you young people I don't mean no harm

I just want you to leave my grandpa alone

He says I've got old now have pities on me

If you bother my grandpa

I'm the one you gotta see

My dear old dad
