I'll be an old lady if I get lucky
I'll be an old lady someday
With strawberry hair or grey if I dare
Counting my blessings away
Will you come and see me?
Will you believe me?
I'm sorry for all my mistakes
I hope that you're happy
Do you know that I love you better than anyone,
better than anything?
Oh, lady, how did I grow so old?
When I close my eyes,
I'm still just a girl
We are turning right to
Session
Road
that you no longer like it,
I take it right back there for you.
Me and my handbag,
my well -traveled turquoise,
orangey red lipstick and nails,
a bosom of berlin perfume,
so I smell just like my grandmother.
Oh, lady, how did I grow so old
When I close my eyes, I'm still just a girl
Oh, lady, I want your hand to hold and touch my
cheek like you did when you were a baby
My son and my daughter, my sun and my moon,
my warm summer late afternoon
I'm happy to keep to myself till you need me I'll clean up the grandkids,
I'll sleep in the back room
I wish I could take back the fight I had in me
But oh how I loved you my dears
Stay close, don't forget me
And if I forget,
you play music to prick up my ears
Oh, lady, how did I grow so old
When I close my eyes, I'm still just a girl
Oh, lady, I want your hand to hold
And touch my cheek like you
did when you were a baby
Oh, lady, how did I grow so old
When I close my eyes,
I'm still just a girl
You
