My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds
    right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now

Corduroy pants
    and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin'
    just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty
    but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now

Old man crossin' the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossin' the road,
He's feelin' fine

Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him
    'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now

Brown leather boots
    and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood
    with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty
    but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now

Old man crossin' the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossin' the road,
He's feelin' fine

Mama's waiting
    at the top of the hill,
They'll be laughing,
    oh the stories they'll tell...
When he holds her
    in his arms again,
They'll be sweethearts
    with time on their hands

My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds
    right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now

Corduroy pants
    and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin'
  just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty
  but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now

Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him
    'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now

Brown leather boots
    and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood
    with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty
    but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
