Lyrics:

Have you ever sat down with an old man
Let him speak his mind?
I'm sure he'd say thank you
And appreciate the time
I'm sure you'd hear
Lord, between them ears
A few things that you wanted to know for a long time
'Cause there's more to gray hair than old bones
A whole lot more between them calloused ears
And remembering goes on
So when he tells you something, pass it on

Now I'm just like an old roping horse
Lord, you know the only course
Is where a cowboy reins him and throws his head
And this life that I've been living
Lord, it keeps on giving me
What I deserve to hell where I go when I'm dead
'Cause there's more to gray hair than old bones
A whole lot more between them calloused ears
And remembering goes on
So when he tells you something, pass it on

If the devil ever gets on my back
Better not cut me no slack
Gonna look him eye to eye, I'm gonna grin
If there's a toll gate to hell
Mister, you might as well go ahead
And loan me enough money to get in
'Cause there's more to gray hair than old bones
A whole lot more between them calloused ears
And remembering goes on
So when he tells you something, pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on
