DIRTY OLD MAN
Words and Music by Keith McGavern
A dirty old man is what I am, whether
Lying in bed or sitting on the can.
I play with myself all the day long, whether
Fooling in my pockets or singing a song, so youd better
Watch out, if Im near
Youll probably find me calling you dear
And look out if I move
Its only with you that I seek to groove
Pretending to be what Im really not, you see theres
Something I want that I havent got. So
If I come on with a line or two, well thats
Just my way of really getting to know you, so youd better
Watch out, if Im near
Youll probably find me calling you dear
And look out if I move
Its only with you that I seek to groove
Now Im a sinner and a guilt free man, why theres
Just no escaping it in this land. So
If you find yourself looking down on me, well the
Person you see is the person you be, so youd better
Watch out, if Im near
Youll probably find me calling you dear
And look out if I move
Its only with you that I seek to groove
Now I've been living for a day or three
And there's just no time like now for you and for me
You've heard my words, you've heard me say
What else can I tell you now let up pray
Watch out, if Im near
Youll probably find me calling you dear
And look out if I move
Its only with you that I seek to groove
(Whistling)
