Life's been a bit fraught recently so this week I wrote a song, probably the quickest song from idea to finish, about 9 hours!! Maybe some of you can relate to the words LOL Old man boogie Gotta be careful when I cough, laugh or sneeze and everything I do now is killing me I'm up half the night and fall asleep in the day and all these damned aches just wont go away I'm falling apart and its plain to see I got the old man boogie and its bugging me Take tablets in the morning, lunchtime and at night I can hardly breath cos my trousers are too tight My parting's got wider,so much wider every day my 6 packs gone for ever cos there's fat now in the way I'm falling apart and its plain to see I got the old man boogie and its bugging me solo it's certainly true it only hurts when you laugh it's a major operation just to get me out the bath I look in the mirror , can't believe that is me I'm falling apart and its plain to see I got the old man boogie and its bugging me RealTracks in style: 1922:Bass, Electric, TexasBluesRockSlow12-8 Sw 060 RealTracks in song: ~~2054:Guitar, Acoustic, Fingerpicking CountryWaltzBrent Sw 110 RealTracks in song: 1591:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm TexasBluesRockShuffle Sw 130 RealTracks in song: 1163:Guitar, Acoustic, Rhythm CelticJig Sw 110 RealDrums in Song: CountryShuffle128^1-a:Sidestick, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride RealTracks in song: 424 Harmonica, Soloist Blues Sw 120 ******************* Enjoy  Alyn

This is hilarious, Alyn!
...though a little too close to home.
Great choice for your band. Well mixed.
(I'm still laughing!)
Any significance to the fact that it's over a lot quicker than most songs? HA!
Well done. Enjoyed.

Hi Alyn.
Well, yes!
Another classic "Alyn" track.
Makes you laugh, then makes you think, then makes you despair, then makes you laugh again, only louder.
Many thanks Alyn, for brightening up my Monday.
ROG.

Hi Alyn,
what great lyrics! I'm too vain to admit that I can relate to it.
Nice accompaniment. Astounding that the Waltz guitar works with it, but it does fine.
A very enjoyable listen.

You nailed it this time Alyn. All of the right elements are there and it all fits together nice. Good lyrics. Enjoyed the laughter and the song.

ROG. HAHAHA! Leave it to ROG to perfectly define the appeal of Alyn's song writing niche! Alyn, I can't decide whether to love this song because it makes me laugh, or hate this song because it reminds me that I'm getting older... ah, what the heck.. I like it! Good job, and keep 'em coming!

Dang, what a day to listen to this!
I'm one of the older (maybe oldest)
pharts around this board and today
my wife saw me fly about 15 feet through
the air on a spectacular (visually) mountain
bike crash. So I hobble in, clean up, and
sit back to listen to some forum music
and I hear this!!
I don't have the fat but I have all the
aches and pains. Heck, I hurt in places
I used to not know I even had.
Pardon the ramble but your song was
so funny and so timely that I can't
shut up....but I will.
The song is creative, funny, well developed,
well delivered and the mix sounds great.
Back for another and some more laughter.
Thanks for this!!
J&B

Man Alyn, I laughed all the way through this one. Actually it hits so close to home it hurts. I guess at this point we just can't take ourselves so seriously. Thanks for the smiles. Tom
