Old Age And Treachery    (1991)

Old age and treachery,
Always overcomes youth and skill.
Ain't too much that we won't do;
What Waylon won't, Willie will.

Even though we've spent our lives,
Chargin' up the wrong side of the hill.
Old age and treachery,
Always overcomes youth and skill.

Some people say that our,
Get up and go's got up and gone.
(I don't know 'bout you Willie but,)
I can still jump as high.
I just can't stay that high that long.

Even though we've spent our lives,
Chargin' up the wrong side of the hill.
Old age and treachery,
Always overcomes youth and skill.

Young bull says: "Old bull,
"Let's run that heiffer down and have a ball."
("Let's make her squawl")
Old bull says: "Young Bull,
"Let's just ease on adown and love 'em all."

Old age and treachery,
Always overcomes youth and skill.
Ain't too much that we won't do;
What Waylon won't, Willie will.

Even though we have spent our lives,
Chargin' up the wrong side of the hill.
Old age and treachery,
Always overcomes youth and skill.

Rosie loves the raquet ball,
She won't do it but her sister will.
Damn, what'd you say that for?
Ain't got a thing to do with this....
I know what you're tryin' to do.
Your tryin' to get half a song.
Ok, we'll put your name on it.

Rosie loves the raquet ball,

She won't do it but her sister will.

Lyrics by Max D. Barnes, Willie Nelson, Troy Seals and Waylon Jennings.
Recorded by Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson.
