[00:16.70]Lean in friend
[00:20.57]Lean in friend
[00:26.07]And I'll tell you a tale
[00:32.23]Be a good friend
[00:36.25]Be a good friend
[00:41.11]As I tread the stage awhile
[00:47.38]It was late in the day
[00:51.27]The day after the fair
[00:56.97]When I heard tell of her
[01:02.69]She lived so far away
[01:06.00]Further, farther and beyond
[01:12.49]Well, you know that they say
[01:17.67]She was old as the hills
[01:22.30]And worn as a train
[01:26.24]On rails of old steel wool
[01:30.22]She was old as the hills
[01:33.95]And her sons were all gone
[01:38.35]Killed in battle and won
[01:41.78]By someone above
[01:45.49]'stead of coming on home
[01:48.25]And her daughters were gone
[01:53.09]Followed love and they'd run
[01:57.09]To the city below
[02:00.81]'stead of coming on home
[02:03.59]She was old as the hills
[02:08.52]And worn as a train
[02:12.45]On rails of old steel wool
[02:16.25]She was old as the hills
[02:19.97]She had a bullet in her bonnet
[02:23.82]The last that she owned
[02:27.63]And her gun in her pocket
[02:30.05]To keep her strong when she rode
[02:34.98]She went fishing in the shallows
[02:38.93]For eels and minnows
[02:42.75]Which she fried up so nicely
[02:45.81]All salty and spicy
[02:49.36]She was old as the hills
[02:54.10]And worn as a train
[02:57.92]On rails of old steel wool
[03:01.70]She was old as the hills
[03:05.63]And her dog was gone
[03:09.30]Whom she'd cared for so long
[03:13.09]They had whiskey and plums
[03:16.81]On his lavender bed
[03:20.52]And her love was gone
[03:24.45]When he heard the sea's song
[03:28.09]Left the shore all alone
[03:31.82]To travel the world around
[03:35.69]She was old as the hills
[03:39.56]And worn as a train
[03:43.19]On rails of old steel wool
[03:47.21]She was old as the hills
