Old Things New

I'm dustin' off Hank and I'm puttin' him on
Gonna drink one and listen to a country song
The way that it sounded back in 1952
I'm takin' some old things
And makin' em new

I'm pickin' up the phone and I'm startin' to dial
Some friends I haven't talked to in a while
I'm gonna tell them that I love them, yes I do
I'm takin' some old things
And makin' em new

Lately my world's been movin' way too fast
I gotta slow down and catch up with some of the past
Maybe go back home and stay for a week or two
I'm takin' some old things and makin' em new

I'm takin' your picture out of that drawer
Gonna hold you close to my chest once more
Remembering a love that felt so true
I'm takin' some old things
And makin' em new

Lately my world's been movin' way too fast
I gotta slow down and catch up with some of the past
Gonna polish up my favorite pair of boots
I'm takin' some old things and makin' em new

Strummin' my D-18 and hummin' a Haggard tune
I'm takin' some old things and makin' em new
Takin' some old things and makin' em new
