Eames Era, The - Old Folks lyrics

That's how the old folks used to do

That's how the old folks used to do

Killing spare time with a hook and a capital K

But should you have it your way

That's how the old folks used to do

That's how the old folks used to do

That's how the old folks used to do

That's how the old folks used to do

Killing spare time with a hook and a capital K

But you could have it your way

When I met you father he said girl you're a lush

You better keep you nose clean, better keep in touch

That is he said to me all the things we do remind him of when he was younger than us

But if you just grow up we would be so proud of you

Why don't you get a real job and cut your hair too

Trade in that nasty shirt for a three quarter blouse and iron it twice a day

He said

That's how the old folks used to do

That's how the old folks used to do

Killing spare time with a hook and a capital K

But should you have it your way
