Lyrics
Other Then That, I'm Doin' Pretty Good)
Writer ---Ed Bentley edbentley@mail.com
{ Verse 1}
Two old boys, met down at the town park
One said, Friend -- it's been a while
Truth is I thought you died, your light went dark
The other laughed, shook his head, with a smile
{ Chorus }
He said, My knees don't bend, my back's all sore
Lost my remote, in our new fridge door
My wife shakes her head, says "oh lord"
Other than that, I'm doin' pretty good
{ Verse 2 }
Gaining weight, cut out pie and beer
Forget what I came, in the kitchen for
Wife says it's a miracle, you're still here
Now turn TV down, rattling the floor
{ Chorus 2 }
My knees don't bend, my back's all sore
Takes a little while get through a door
My wife shakes her head, says "oh lord"
Other than that, I'm doin' pretty good
{Bridge}
The Grand kids laugh, when I try to text
roll their eyes, at my old flip phone
Love my wife, love her to death
Guess that's the reason, I ain't alone
Some folks chase money, some chase fame
I'm just proud, I remember my name
{Last Chorus}
My knees don't bend, my back's all sore
Takes a little while get through a door
My wife shakes her head, says "oh lord"
Other than that, I'm doin' pretty good
(tag) Yeah, other than that, I'm doin' pretty good!"
