Old Things New

.
Im dustin off Hank and Im puttin him on
And Im gonna drink one and listen to a country song
The way it sounded in nineteen-fifty-two
Im takin some old things, and makin em new
.
Im pickin up the phone and Im startin to dial
A number of friends I havent talked to in a while
And Im gonna tell em that I love em, yes I do
Im takin some old things, and makin em new
.
Lately my worlds 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
Im takin some old things and makin em new
.
Im takin your picture out of that drawer
And Im gonna hold you close to my chest once more
Remembering the love that felt so true
Im takin some old things and makin em new
.
Baby, my worlds 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
Im takin some old things and makin em new
.
Strummin my D-18 and hummin a Haggard tune
Im takin some old things and makin em new
Im takin some old things... and makin em new
