My Grandpa Is Too Old Lyrics

I want all you young people to know what to do,
leave my grandpa alone 'cause he done got old too
That's my grandpa, that's my grandpa,
that's my grandpa, sweetest man I ever saw

Mama told me, oh, day of old,
your grandpa stood by, tell this is told
Now don't bother my grandpa 'cause he done got old too
I ain't jivin', I ain't jokin',
ain't gonna never bother you

My grandpa he shouts for joy,
been takin' care of me ever since I was a boy
He getting old now,
and he really is
Really I know it 'cause I'm old myself

My grandpa says "Son, take me a walkin',
say I wanna go where's the coolest place you know"
I say "Why, grandpa?",
'cause grandpa's getting old

Tell all you people, done want you to understand,
grandpa once have been a young man
He getting old now
He's getting to be an old man
He can't remember 'morrow, but he still understands

He look at me and he say, "What's this all about?
Give me my pipe son", and he had it in his mouth
He's an old man, you know he don't got the mind,
you see he don't hardly know what he's doing
But he's still my grandpa
But he ain't nothin' else to turn

Tell all you young people, I don't mean no harm,
I just want you to leave my grandpa alone
He says I've got old now, have pity on me

If you bother my grandpa,
I'm the one you gotta see

My dear old dad
My dear old dad
