Happy with no teeth, happy here in hibernation
Slurpin' on a peach, starin' at the situation
Kitty at my foot, meowin' out a conversation
Rockin' back an' forth, that's my only destination
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that...
Meeeeeeeeeeow, wow, wow, wow
Got a two-string on my lap, total subsonic vacation
Got chicken on the drums, poundin' out a perfect prescription
Got twenty little worms, all plug into amplification
Got fifteen hundred bass drum luggin' bug-eyed monkeys
All arriving at the station
I'm an old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that...
Me me meeeeeoe, whoa, whoa, whoa

Chris:
I'm sittin on the back porch, kickin' my legs back,
rockin' in my rockin' chair, just sittin' there.
On the little back porch it's about to fall apart
so I think I might repair it. Just as I'm thinkin'
about repairin' it some little friends come along
with some two-string, one string, no string guitar
(Hey Chris wanna jam?), and they plug them all in
into the back porch, and they sit around playing all
their favorite songs and kickin' back, feelin' real
good, real fine, real full of the wine...
And everything's fine, everything's beautiful,
everything's great, and I just feel so good,
you know I'm seventy years old and I'm slurpin
everything through a straw, but I'm an...
Dave:
I'm sittin' here on the back porch just eatin'
chocolate pudding through a straw and I heated
up the sterno stove, tasted just like a warm body
fluid goin' down, little players comin' ' round,
pluggin' in their instruments, feelin' good about
themselves, singin' original songs, by the original
masters and I'm sittin' there on the porch, rockin'
back'n'forth in my little old chair...
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that old man is me
Old man on the back porch, old man on the back porch
Old man on the back porch, and that...
