Nursing Home Blues lyrics
I am an old man living alone
My loved ones stuck me here in this nursing home
I ve lost all usefulness
I want to die
I have them all the best years of my life
Then Maggie passed away, now I ve got no wife
So kill me, young man, or hand me your knife
I want to die
My beautiful daughter says I get in the way
I depress her because I m old and grey
She can t stand to see the wrinkles in my skin
By golly, girl, you re my only kin
I want to die
Like an old horse put out to pasture
Too old to be of any more use to it s master
But when I lie in bed and I reminisce
I begin to think maybe this is best
I m out of the way, not in anyone s hair
And though I m costing them money, I don t care
I want to die
