Sixty Years On (Live in Australia 1986) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who'll walk me down to church when I'm sixty years of age
When the ragged dog they gave me has been ten years in the grave?
And señorita play guitar, plays it just for you
My rosary has broken and my beads have all slipped through

[Verse 2]
You've hung up your great coat and you've laid down your gun
You know the war you fought in, it wasn't too much fun

[Refrain]
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on

[Verse 3]
Yes, I'll sit with you and talk, let your eyes relive again
I know my vintage prayers would be very much the same
Magdеlena plays the organ, plays it just for you
Your choral lamp that burns so low when you arе passing through

[Refrain]
And the future you're giving me holds nothing for a gun
I've no wish to be living sixty years on

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
