Old Things New

I'm dustin' off Hank and I'm puttin' him on And I'm gonna drink one and listen to a country song The way it sounded in nineteen-fifty-two I'm takin' some old things, and makin' 'em new I'm pickin' up the phone and I'm startin' to dial A number of friends I haven't talked to in a while And I'm gonna tell 'em that I love 'em, yes I do I'm takin' some old things, and makin' 'em new Lately my world's been movin' way too fast I need to slow down and catch up with some of the past Maybe go back home and stay for a week or two I'm takin' some old things and makin' 'em new I'm takin' your picture out of that drawer And I'm gonna hold you close to my chest once more Remembering the love that felt so true I'm takin' some old things and makin' 'em new Baby, my world's been movin' way too fast I need to slow down and catch up with some of the past Maybe go back home and stay for a week or two I'm takin' some old things and makin' 'em new Strummin' my D-18 and hummin' a Haggard tune I'm takin' some old things and makin' 'em new I'm takin' some old things... and makin' 'em new --- Old Things New - Joe Nichols
