T'was time to move along
And head on up the road
On that dead horse he rode
He went on as he please
Leaving dusty memories
Of him and of us
And of all that he was
THE OLD MAN'S GONE
ALL WE CAN DO IS RIDE ON
RIDE ON, RIDE ON OUR WAY
WE'LL CATCH UP SOME DAY
WAS A TIME TO REMEMBER
A TIME TO NEVER FORGET
THE OLD MAN IS GONE
GONE OFF INTO THE SUNSET
Young man look around
This isn't your piece'a ground
Others have held it before
And after you many more
Learn to see beyond your sight
We're all a brief flash of light
And now that the old man's gone
Nothing to do but move on
Nothing to do but move on
THE OLD MAN'S GONE
ALL WE CAN DO IS RIDE ON
RIDE ON, RIDE ON OUR WAY
WE'LL CATCH UP SOME DAY
WAS A TIME TO REMEMBER
A TIME TO NEVER FORGET
THE OLD MAN IS GONE
OFF INTO THE SUNSET
