It's only a stick but so much more
It helps me to scoot across the floor
Gives me the confidence
I need to travel now
I can walk on sand and gravel

A tripod now instead of two
It's always good to add a shoe
There's so much more than just support
It's like I started a new kind of sport

There are girls who like to assist
Some of them are sure to insist
I drop my cane to watch
Them run sometimes
I do it just for fun

"I'll get it" "I'll get it"
They yell out loud
They scurry and dodge thru the crowd
They pick up my cane
And hand it to me
With a big smile and obvious glee

Might get to like this old man gig
All I need is this wooden twig
I like to see the sympathy come running
I never knew I could be so cunning

It's not about me it's about them
I like to see them feel like a gem
It's rewarding for me to see
Them succeed in helping
An old man to proceed

I never imagined a chick magnet
Like this little did I know
What I had missed
At my age it's all I have going
To try to keep the sympathy flowing

Might get to like this old man gig
All I need is this wooden twig
I like to see the sympathy come running
I never knew I could be so cunning
