There's an old man in our town 有一位老人在我们的城市

And I guess he's been around 我猜他的存在了

Growing old just sitting there 变老了只是坐在那里

Every year he had the sing 每年他有唱

For youth to say. 青年说。

An so I've been told 的，所以我一直在说

If you should miss it in your youngtime 如果您错过了在你的youngtime

Have it when you're old. 拥有它，当你老了。

   

Now there's no old man sitting there 现在有没有老人坐在那里

Just an empty rocking chair 只是一个空洞的摇椅

But the things he said 不过的事情，他说：

Will always be around. 将始终围绕。

   

Someday when I'm old and grey 有一天，当我老了，灰

Maybe youth can come my way 也许年轻人可以来我的方式

I'll be proud to be 我会很自豪地成为

The old man in our town. 老头在我们的城市。

   

And I'll say youth only happens to you one time 我会说青春只发生在你身上一次

Have it when you're old... 有它当你的老...
