Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Happy with no teeth
Happy here in hibernation
Slurpin' on a peach
Starin' at the situation
[Verse 2]
Kitty at my foot
Meowin' out a conversation
Rockin' back and forth
That's my only destination
[Verse 3]
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that old man is me
[Verse 4]
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that
[Verse 5]
Meee-aaaah-ooh
Wah-ooh
Wah-ooh
Wah-um
[Verse 6]
Got a two-string on my lap
Total subsonic vacation
Got a chicken on the drums
Poundin' out a perfect prescription
[Verse 7]
Got twenty little worms
All plug into amplification
Got fifteen hundred bass-drum-luggin', bug-eyed monkeys
All arriving at the station
[Verse 8]
I'm an old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that old man is me
[Verse 9]
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that
[Verse 10]
Mee hee heeee-yow
Woh-oh
Woh-oh
Woh-oh
[Verse 11]
I'm sittin' on the back porch (I'm sittin' here)
Kickin' my legs back (On the back porch)
Rockin' in my rockin' chair (Just eatin' a chocolate pudding)
Just sittin' there
On that little back porch (Through a straw)
It's about to fall apart
So I think I might repair it
Just as I'm thinkin about repairin' it (And I heated it up on an)
Some little friends come along (External stove)
With some two-string, one-string
No string guitars (Tastes just like warm)
And they plug them all into the back porch (Bodily fluid goin' down)
And they sit around
Playing all their favorite songs (Little players comin' 'round)
And kickin back feelin' real good (Pluggin' in their instruments)
Real fine (Feelin' good about themselves)
Real full of the wine
And everything's fine (Singin' the old songs)
Everything's beautiful
Everything's great (Like the original masters)
I just feel so good, you know
I'm seventy years old (And I'm sittin' there on the porch)
And I'm slurpin' everything
Through a straw (Rockin' back 'n' forth in my little old chair)
[Verse 12]
But I'm an old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that old man is me
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch
And that
