I had thought that William Brown hated his home life in North Carolina and when he moved to Omaha he relized how much better he liked it and never wanted to go back. So he didn't. |

| Randy Newman – Old Man Lyrics
| 14 years ago

|
Randy Newman, the song/storyteller, is talking to his Father on his death bed. His Father was very stubborn and didn't show compasion for anyone so no one visited him but his son. The old man was also an athiest and tried to convince his son of his non-faith, but failed because he recognizes that he was teaching him a lie. His son also, at the end saying "everybody dies" is accepting his Fathers death. |
