[00:00:10] Old Dogs Children and Watermelon Wine -Tex Williams

[00:00:13] How old do you think i am he said

[00:00:16] I said well i didn't know

[00:00:21] He said i turned sixty five about eleven months ago

[00:00:29] I was sitting in miami pouring blended whiskey down

[00:00:38] When this old gray black gentleman was cleaning up the lounge

[00:00:47] There wasn't anyone around accept this old man and me

[00:00:56] The guy who ran the bar was watching iron sides on tv

[00:01:05] Uninvited he sat down and opened up his mind

[00:01:13] On old dogs and children and watermelon wine

[00:01:25] Ever had a drink of watermelon wine he asked

[00:01:34] He told me all about it though i didn't answer back

[00:01:43] Ain't but three things in this world that's worth a solitary dime

[00:01:51] But old dogs and children and watermelon wine

[00:02:04] He said women think about they selves

[00:02:07] When menfolk ain't around

[00:02:11] And friends are hard to find

[00:02:15] When they discover that you're down

[00:02:21] He said i tried it all

[00:02:24] When i was young and in my natural prime

[00:02:29] Now it's old dogs and children and watermelon wine

[00:02:41] Old dogs care about you even

[00:02:45] When you make mistakes

[00:02:49] God bless little children

[00:02:53] While they're still too young to hate

[00:02:57] When he moved away i found my pen

[00:03:02] And copied down that line

[00:03:07] Bout old dogs and children and watermelon wine

[00:03:29] I had to catch a plane up to atlanta that next day

[00:03:37] As i left for my room

[00:03:41] I saw him picking up my change

[00:03:47] That night i dreamed in peaceful sleep

[00:03:51] Of shady summertime

[00:03:55] Of old dogs and children and watermelon wine
