Nursing Home Blues Lyrics - Dri

I am an old man living alone 

My loved ones stuck me here in this nursing home 

I've lost all usefulness 

I want to die 

I gave them all the best years of my life 

Then Maggie passed away, now I've got no wife 

So kill me, young man or hand me your knife 

'Cause I want to die 

My beautiful daughter says I get in the way 

I depress her because I'm old and gray 

She can't stand to see the wrinkles in my skin 

By golly, girl, you're my only kin 

I want to die 

Like an old horse put out to pasture 

Too old to be of any more use to it's master 

When I lie in bed and I reminisce 

I begin to think maybe this is best
