Nursing Home Blues Lyrics

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

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

I'm out of the way, not in anyone's hair
I'm costing them money but I don't care
I want to die
