CHe turned thirty-five last Sunday FIn his hair he found some gCray CBut he still ain't changed his lifestyle He likes it better the oGld way So he grFows a little garden in the bacCkyard by the fence He's coFnsuming what he's growing nowCadays in self defGense He get's oCut there in the twilight zone SomeFtimes when it just don't make no seCnse CYeah he gets off on country music F'Cause disco left him cCold CHe's got young friends into new wave But he's just too frigging oGld And he drFeams at night of Woodstock And the dCay John Lennon died How the mFusic made him happy And the siClence made him cGry Yea he thCinks of John sometimes And he hFas to wonder wChy
[Chorus]
He's an oFld hippie And he dCon't know what to do Should he hGang on to the old Should he gCrab on to the new He's an oFld hippie This new lCife is just a bust He ain't tGrying to change nobody He's just trFying real hDmard to adCjust
[Verse II]
CHe was sure back in the sixties FThat everyone was hCip CThen they sent him off to Vietnam On his senior tGrip And they foFrce him to become a man While Che was still a boy And beFhind each wave of tragedy He waCited for the jGoy Now this wCorld may change around him FBut he just can't change no mCore

[Verse III]
CWell he stays away a lot now FFrom the parties and the cClubs CAnd he's thinking while he's joggin' 'round Sure is glad he quit the hGard drugs 'Cause hFim and his kind get more endaCngered everyday And pFretty soon the species Will just Cup and fade aGway Like the sCmoke from that torpedo FJust up and fade aCway
[Chorus]
He's an oFld hippie And he dCon't know what to do Should he hGang on to the old Should he gCrab on to the new He's an oFld hippie This new lCife is just a bust He ain't tGrying to change nobody He's just trFying real hDmard to adCjust yeah he ain't tGryin' to change nobody He's just trFying real hDmard to adCjust
