Not Like I Do

You think I'm just an old man
and I don't mean a thing to you
You'd rather have a young man baby
one that says he loves you too
Well a young man is your delight
I guess he knows about love all right
But not like I do – not like I do
Not like I do – not like I do


You want love to last a lifetime,
someone who'll never be untrue
But how to keep on lovin' you darlin'
them young men never have a clue
most burn the candle much too fast
a few know how to make it last
But not like I do – not like I do
Not like I do – not like I do


You say that you know lonesome,
you been lonesome through and through
Say that you know lonesome darlin'
you been left for somebody new
You spent a year or two in hell
So maybe you know lonesome well
But not like I do – not like I do
Not like I do – not like I do


You looked all over this great big world,
tryin' to find somebody who
can really understand you,
but the pickin's have been few
You might find yourself one or two
that love you just for being you
But not like I do – not like I do
Not like I do – not like I do
