Lyrics
A guy came up behind me while I was walkin' down the hall
He didn’t seem to have no patience at all
He said he was in a hurry and he gave me a poke
I said I’d like to help you friend, but my hurry done broke
I was moving at my own pace, goin' where I needed to be
When some kid started pushin', trying to get around me
He said “Hurry up pops, I gotta see my bride”
I said “I’d I’m sorry son but my hurry died”
I’ve lived enough years that I deserve a break,
There’s only so much abuse one body can take
Walkin' down the street and this Bozo pushed me out of his way
They said “move it along gramps, you’re wastin' my day”
He said “old man, you be movin' like you’re tired
I said it’s more than that sport, my hurry done expired
I’ve lived enough years that I deserve a break,
There’s only so much abuse one body can take
If I move slow it’s cause a good life can be hard
And honest labor leaves a man bent and scarred
You may think it’s funny, but it ain’t it ain’t no joke
I’m goin' as fast as I can, my hurry done broke
