Country Rock - what happens when an old musician always falls for the younger women
I( guess I wrote the song after getting hit on many times at shows and wondering what would happen if I gave in to temptation,
One Foot Out the Door
©2003/ J. Baldassaro
I used to have it all – kids and a wife
I never thought I would fall – it was the best kind of life
She came back stage and asked me for my autograph
I told her some stupid joke and she started to laugh
One word led to another
I was as old as her mother
It didn’t matter to her – now the rest is a blurrrrr
Chorus
I got – one foot in the grave one foot out the door
One foot in the grave one foot out the door
She said she’s into new age
I don’t know what that means
She’s got a guardian angel
She says I’ve seen
She took me rollerblading
I ruptured my spleen
I’m the oldest fool in spandex
You’ve ever seen
One word led to another
I got my butt kicked by her brother
It didn’t matter to her
– Now the rest is a blurrrrrrrr
Chorus
I got – one foot in the grave one foot out the door
One foot in the grave one foot out the door
I long for my old life
Hell – I even long for my old wife
One thing’s for certain - I’m safer with herrrrr
Break
Another town – another pretty young thing
She says she’s into our music – and likes how I sing
I kissed her hand – that’s when I noticed the ring
I’d be whole lot safer if I continued to sing
But one thing led to another
This time I’m dating her mother
One thing’s for certain – I’m safer with her
I got one foot in the grave
– One foot out the door
One foot in the grave
– One foot out the door
One foot in the grave
– One foot out the door
I got - One foot in the grave
–One foot out the door
