This old hat's hung on the bedpost too long Forgotten like some used to be remembered like a song Where all the words are so easy to recall Hmm, this old hat It's seen day fade to night in an open sky Beneath the fury of the heavens Kept the rain out of my eyes Yet, somehow don't look as weathered as I Hmm, this old hat This old hat's been down some dusty trails And may not look as good as it did new The crown is stained, the brim is torn It's even been walked on a time or two This old hat's just like an old friend Misplaced from time to time but it still fits They don't make 'em like they used to There was a time, this old hat was in style But it was different then It turned a few heads for awhile But what the hell, I might try it on again Hmm, this old hat This old hat's been down some dusty trails And may not look as good as it did new Crown is stained, the brim is torn It's even been walked on a time or two This old hat's just like an old friend Misplaced from time to time but it still fits They don't make 'em like they used to This old hat's hung on the bedpost way too long
