He is old and cripple
But not from the ridged river ripple
That thrashed him so
Down to low
His old lady is dead
She died in her bed
A tumor took her life
Like a heart stabbed by a knife
He doesn't live day by day
He's always on his way
He breathes in the moment
As if to eat a cold mint
His hair is thin and white
He takes a small bite
He misses his wife
But still loves his life
He is old and cripple
With a wrinkled dimple
He acts strong with might
But he died last night
He is old and cripple
But not from the ridged river ripple
That thrashed him so
Down to low
His old lady is dead
She died in her bed
A tumor took her life
Like a heart stabbed by a knife
He doesn't live day by day
He's always on his way
He breathes in the moment
As if to eat a cold mint
His hair is thin and white
He takes a small bite
He misses his wife
But still loves his life
He is old and cripple
With a wrinkled dimple
He acts strong with might
But he died last night
