Life in the Old Dog Yet Lyrics

by Celtic Thunder

In my time, I've been a few places
And I've many a story to tell
Here I am, still as strong
As I've been all along
I'm not ready for Heaven or Hell

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e75025-celtic_thunder~life_in_the_old_dog_yet_lyrics.html ]
There are people who do need reminding
That I'm still the boss around here
I still call every shot
And I'll tell you what's what and what's not
Do I make myself clear?

I'm not ready to roll over
I'm still the daddy of them all
I'm still the top banana
They still answer when I call

I'm older, yes, but I'm wiser
And they better not forget
I'm not ready to roll over
‘Cause there's life in the old dog yet

You can put an old head on young shoulders
My advice is the best I can give
Let them make their mistakes
Let them fight for their breaks
Let them learn how to love and to live

I've only got the one daughter
Time she married a man of her own
And the one I have planned
Has got plenty of land
She'll be grand, and I'll stand all alone

I'm not ready to roll over
I'm still the daddy of them all
I'm still the top banana
They still answer when I call

I'm older, yes, but I'm wiser
And they better not forget
I'm not ready to roll over
‘Cause there's life in the old dog yet

I'm not ready to roll over
I'm still the daddy of them all
I'm still the top banana
They still answer when I call

I'm older, yes, but I'm wiser
And they better not forget
I'm not ready to roll over
‘Cause there's life in the old dog yet

‘Cause there's life in this old dog yet
