Look at the man
Who shouldered the wheel
Look at his hands
Once stronger than steel
And now they're gently trembling
Raise a glass to the woman
Who raised us young
Fifty-odd years
Of biting her tounge
And now her colors are slowly fading
Now her colors are slowly fading
Remember the house
Where memories were born
Now the curtains are torn
And the carpets are worn
And the heater broke down last evening
I remember the kid
Once climbing the pines
Now he's a singer/songwriter
Who don't have the time
For the ones that really matter
And the ones that really mattered
Look at the man
Who shouldered the wheel
Look at his hands
Once stronger than steel
And now they're gently trembling
And now they're gently trembling
