Lyrics Old Dogs, Children And Watermelon Wine - Tom T. Hall
"How
old
do
you
think
I
am?",
he
said
I
said,
"Well,
I
didn't
know",
he
said,
"I
turned
65
about
11
months
ago"
I
was
sittin'
in
Miami
pourin'
blended
whiskey
down
When
this
old
gray
Black
gentleman
was
cleanin'
up
the
lounge
There
wasn't
anyone
around
'cept
this
old
man
and
me
The
guy
who
ran
the
bar
was
watchin'
"Ironsides"
on
TV
Uninvited,
he
sat
down
and
opened
up
his
mind
On
old
dogs
and
children
and
watermelon
wine
"Ever
had
a
drink
of
watermelon
wine?",
he
asked
He
told
me
all
about
it,
though
I
didn't
answer
back
"Ain't
but
three
things
in
this
world
that's
worth
a
solitary
dime
But
old
dogs
and
children
and
watermelon
wine"
He
said,
"Women
think
about
they-selves,
when
menfolk
ain't
around
And
friends
are
hard
to
find
when
they
discover
that
you're
down"
He
said,
"I
tried
it
all
when
I
was
young
and
in
my
natural
prime
Now
it's
old
dogs
and
children
and
watermelon
wine"
"Old
dogs
care
about
you
even
when
you
make
mistakes
God
bless
little
children
while
they're
still
too
young
to
hate"
When
he
moved
away
I
found
my
pen
and
copied
down
that
line
'Bout
old
dogs
and
children
and
watermelon
wine
I
had
to
catch
a
plane
up
to
Atlanta
that
next
day
As
I
left
for
my
room
I
saw
him
pickin'
up
my
change
That
night
I
dreamed
in
peaceful
sleep
of
shady
summertime
Of
old
dogs
and
children
and
watermelon
wine
