[Verse 1]
Gone are the days when the ox falls down
Take up the yoke and plow the fields
Gone are the days when the ladies said "Please
Gentle Jack Jones, won't you come to me?"
[Chorus]
Brown-eyed women and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty, but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with the rain pourin’ down
And it looks like the old man's gettin' on
[Verse 2]
1920 when he stepped into the bar
Drank to the dregs of the whiskey jar
1930 when the wall caved in
He made his way selling red-eyed gin
[Chorus]
Brown-eyed women and red grenadine
The bottle was dusty, but the liquor was clean
Sound of the thunder with the rain pourin’ down
And it looks like the old man's gettin' on
[Instrumental break]
