Into The Old Man's Shoes - Elton John
I'm moving out of tombstone, yeah,
With the sun behind my back
I'm tired of people talking of things
That I lack
Ever since a week ago,
The day he passed away
I've been taking too much notice
Of the things they've had to say
And all they say is you ain't half the man
He used to be
He had strength and worked
His life to feed his family
So if that's the way it has to be,
I'll say goodbye to you
I'm not that guy, or so it seems
To fill my old man's shoes
Like I'm a wicked way of life,
The kind that should be tamed
They'd like to see me locked in jail
And tied up in their chains
Oh, it's hard and I can't see what
They want me to do Lord, Lord
They seem to think I should
Step into the old man's shoes
Like I'm a wicked way of life,
The kind that should be tamed
They'd like to see me locked in jail
And tied up in their chains
Oh, it's hard and I can't see
What they want me to do Lord, Lord
They seem to think I should
Step into the old man's shoes
Like I'm a wicked way of life,
The kind that should be tamed
They'd like to see me locked in jail
And tied up in their chains
Oh, it's hard and I cannot see
What they want me to do Lord, Lord
They seem to think I should
Step into the old man's shoes
Like I'm a wicked way of life,
The kind that should be tamed
Oh, they'd like to see me locked in jail
And tied up in their chains
Oh, it's hard and I cannot see
What they want me to do Lord, Lord
They seem to think I should
Step into the old man's shoes
Lord, I said, like I'm a wicked way of life
The kind that should be
