The Old Man's Wisdom Lyrics


I have been told there was an old man living

Deep in the woods where no sun can see

A seasoned soul would be still shining

Under the bark of this ageing tree

He’s been through life with a will so bestial

One said he found every secret of this world

For I am a fool, a unfledged eagle

I've searched this sage, all over the world

Knows ALL

Sees right

a flawless mind

x2

All of you

Come get some

Listen to

The old man's wisdom

How I found him, it’s something I can’t explain

But I remember this divine voice he had

Love, hate, aloneness and pain

Atrocities of a world gone mad

He's seen it all, but the best lesson I got

Was when he punched my right in the face and said :

"Son, it ain't how hard you hit

But how hard you can get hit and keep moving"

Knows ALL

Sees right -a

Flawless fist

x2

All of you !

Come get some

Listen to

The old man's wisdom
