W. Benton Overstreet / Billy Higgins They say don't change the old for the new But I've found out that this will never do When you grow old don't last long You're here today and then tomorrow you're gone I loved a man for many years gone by I thought his love for me would never die He made some changes that would never do From now on I'm going to make some changes too For there's a change in the weather There's a change in the sea So from now on there'll be in change in me My walk will be different, my talk and my name Nothin' about me is going to be the same I'm goin' to change my wayof livin' If that ain't enough Then I'll change the way that I strut my stuff 'Cause nobody wants you when you're old and gray There'll be some changes made today There'll be some changes made The say the old time things are the best That may be very good for all the rest But I'm goin'g let the old things be 'Cause they are certainly not suited for me There was a time when I thought that way That's why I'm all alone here today Since every one these days seeks something new From now on I'm goin' to seek some new things too For there's a change in the fashion Ask the femine folks Even Jack Benny has changed jokes I must make some changes from old to new I must do things just the same as others do I'm goin' to change my long, tall daddy for a little short fat Goin' to change the number where I live at I must have some lovin' or I'll fade away There'll be some changes made today There'll be some changes made today
