There is rarely an old man who says a little.
Usually, an old man always like to tell you about
his past achievements, if any,
his past encounters,
his past experience,
and from all which the wisdom drawn and concluded.
There is rarely a young boy who
likes to listen to an old man's words.
Usually, a young boy always treats an old man and
his stuff outdated and outmoded.
In fact, most of the old men talk nonsense and
most of the young boys are too rebellious to listen.
In result,
there is rarely an old man of wisdom who
can meet a young boy with wisdom to learn.

Neil Young - Old Man
作詞：NEIL YOUNG
作曲：NEIL YOUNG
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
Twenty four and there's so much more
Live alone in a paradise
That makes me think of two.
Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things that don't get lost.
Like a coin that won't get tossed
Rolling home to you.
Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes and
you can tell that's true.
Lullabies, look in your eyes,
Run around the same old town.
Doesn't mean that much to me
To mean that much to you.
I've been first and last
Look at how the time goes past.
But I'm all alone at last.
Rolling home to you.
Old man take a look at my life
I'm a lot like you
I need someone to love me
the whole day through
Ah, one look in my eyes and
you can tell that's true.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
Old man look at my life,
I'm a lot like you were.
