Same Old Man

John Hiatt · Same Old Man [2008]

Truth is I never was young

Shot like a bullet from a rusty old gun

I could never find the straight and true

Honey, baby till I found you



I ain't saying I ever grown up, girl

Oh, I'm the biggest baby in the world

I know you can say a lot about that

But you're so sweet you keep it under your hat



Honey, I'm still the same old man

That you married way back when

A few less brain cells, a lot less hair

Honey, tell me do you still care?



I love you more than I ever did

I love you just like a little kid

Guess I'll always be your biggest fan

Honey, I'm still the same old man



We been down a rough road or two

This is another one we'll get through

Don't ask me how I know

I'm just saying baby, please don't go



'Cause I can still sparkle up your eyes

And you can still cut me down to size

Please take me as I am

Honey, I'm still the same old man



Honey, I'm still the same old man

That you married way back when

A few less brain, a lot less hair

Honey, tell me do you still care



I love you more than I ever did

I love you just like a little kid

I guess I'll always be your biggest fan

Honey, I'm still the same old man



You start out trying to change everything

You wind up dancing with who you bring

I loved you then and my love still stands

Honey, I'm still the same old man
