作曲:

Dad's old faded trouser and mama's old crept dress

They're not much in the passions

Now they can't afford the best

I know they feel neglected and sometimes in the way

Because the last time I was home

I heard my mama say

Well you kids have all got married off

Now and left us by ourselves

My we didn't know what lonesome was

Until the last one of you've left

You've all got families of your own

That all your friends did mar

And now that we've seen our dreams

Come true tomorrow we'll retire

We still have the old homeplace

We paid it off last year

And we don't owe a soul a dime

Now everything is clear

So we'll just relive our younger days

And sit here by the fire

And if we both live through

The night tomorrow we'll retire

Why we've seen the rainstorms flood our fields

And wash our crops away

And then the droughts would come to follow

This and last for days and days

Why the point of me is work in the fields

When that old sun was hot as fire

But that's all in the furthest past

Now tomorrow we'll retire

In health we've both been lucky

But now we're gettin' kinda great

Our pension starts tomorrow

It's just enough to pay our way

And we've lived to see you kids grow up

And that's been our heart's desire

And if the world would end tonight tomorrow

We'll retire so tomorrow we'll retire
