Dying is easy, it's living that's hard (Clint Eastwood, OJW).
🍻🍻
So true.
OJW? What do you mean, please?
I'm so tired of trying to find myself as the clock ticks faster and faster. My soul doesn't need saved it just needs peace. Thank you for letting me know I'm not alone in my feelings.
You’re definitely not alone. Appreciate you sharing this. ❤️
Amen
word@@satxae5813
You never find yourself. You just get a little closer to who you are each day- if you're doing something right.
Stop trying..you've all ready found it..god bless 👊
Time flies when ya get old - I'm 70 in June
I'm 72..where the fuck did the time go!!
Age brings seeing too many things you can't forget
facts
I suspect all of our ancestors have felt the same if they lived long enough to get old! Enjoy the ride and accept the changes as they come. It will be over sooner than you think!❤
ain’t that the truth!
Reminds me of what my sweet Mother used to say to me. "Ain't no use in cryin about it Mathew don't nobody give a shit."
Haha this gave me a good laugh!
"Getting old is not for sissies."
~ My 93 year old mother, deceased 2015
good words!
She sure was right. And she still is.
spent my youth in the 70s, 80s and 90s listening to old men play blues music.
Now Im starting to actually get old and I dont give two loose squirts about new music.
That said, this tune was pretty solid.
Appreciate that John 🙏
I bet you saw some legends
You don’t care about new music anymore? That ain’t getting old, brother. That’s death.
Golden years my ass. 67 years old and working 13 hours a day
65 and still doing 12hr rides on my Harley ..LIFES GOOD to busy to get old
@@Snakebite666You’re apparently too busy to learn the English language too. And 65 years old still thinking like a child, that your life is for you to spend playing, dressing up as a biker, looking “cool” and sitting on your ass for 12 hours at a time. How many hours a day do you spend feeding the hungry, rescuing exploited and abused children and comforting the hopeless, the sick and the dying? Not enough to mention, right? Imagine living all those years and still thinking that all the world needs now is one more fat, selfish, illiterate 65 year-old teenager on a Road King. When you wake up in the afterlife, what if God is a psychopathic outlaw biker on a bored-out supercharged Shovelhead and you’re a scared and crippled immigrant kid whose poor single mother is running as fast as she can with a broken ankle to get across I-10 in a baby stroller with a busted wheel? Life won’t be such an easy ride then, will it Pedro?
I am 67 and have lost so many, my mom,dad, 3 bro's, 1 sister and many wonderful friends! Was very fortunate to have all 4 grands right into my teens!! Stage 3 cancer survivor [8 years in may] Felt sorry for myself sitting on the couch and so sick from the radiation and chemo when a commercial came on about St Judes Hp and it was eye opening. All the things I have been blessed with and those poor kids [ very humbling ]! I miss all the folks I have mentioned but am happy to have shared living with them and consider myself a lucky man. So when my wife and 3 millennial's tease me with the old man remarks I smile and say Ya! It sucks to get old but It Sure Is Nice!! All the best my fellow Geriatrics 😊
I really enjoyed reading this! Congrats on beating the cancer. I went through a bout in ‘19 no radiation but had a few traumatic surgeries that almost took me out. So here’s to all the cancer survivors out there and blessings to those that didn’t make it. Hope this finds your well Jimbo! Keep on keepin on brother!!!
@@robertconnelyfarr Thank you my friend! All the best!!!
Also, I am glad you are still with us and want to let you know that you are a good man!
Appreciate you Jimbo!
Jim Bo stay in there sir, I just turned 80.. many adventures many hardship. Just glad to be alive.
I am sick and tired of being sick and tired!

And yes....I'm getting tired of getting old
🍻
68 and I’m tired!! Thanks for my anthem from now until home.
cheers brother 🍻🍻
I’m about to hit that 68 too ,and I agree totally! Every day is a new challenge!🥴
Turned 67 a few days ago, trying very hard not to let the old man in
Every time I do something that's "old" I forgive myself cause I've never been this old before :)
Haha good way to look at it
Brilliantly said .
Good ol delta blues
cheers Robert!
I feel this so hard.
❤
I'll get old when I get dead. I'm too old to die young and too young to die now.
I Love Your Philosophy & Took a photo so I don’t forget~Thank You❣️ Cheers 🎵 🎶 🇨🇦
You're welcome.
Most days are good, been that way goin' on more than 70 years, so I'm not complainin'; I love the blues, and this is the real deal, not a cool story sung bluesy, this is the real unvarnished angst of the human condition... Swallow it whole if you can... Grizz
Appreciate the words brother 🙏
Thats a cool ass fuckin riff!
I’m there with you brother!
Me too. I had a heart attack last night, but I survived it.
@@trevorbramich4849 Thanks!
Age is not defined by those years you lived, but how you lived those years 🇭🇲👍💯
facts
Perfectly summed up❣️🇨🇦
Most Sucked
Preachin’ to the Choir...
😂
NICE!!!
I'm not tired of getting old, it's a privilege not everyone gets. But this song will make you think twice about that long road ahead. Well done RCF.
I like that perspective, a privilege - a good way to look at it. Appreciate you sharing that Tim. Cheers bud
Well said
If there was no lyrics I could still listen
Just keeps rolling

Yeah I randomly stumbled across this while listening to Steve Earle and wow I'm happy that I did because this is excellent stuff!

Brilliant,
The toll of living life growing old, time passing hangs in the balance till heavens ready for my old soul. Thank you.
heaven ? 😂
Its all good dont worry !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣
No it's Not
Love❤❤❤
Greetings from New Zealand, music far better than the local 👍👍👍👍
need to make it down that way 👊👊
Я не понимаю английского, но это и не нужно. Сама песня и клип проникли в сердце.
Не знаю почему, у меня возникли ассоциации с "Гроздья гнева" Стейнбека.
ты понял, чувак
I don't understand English, but I don't need to. The song itself and the video penetrated my heart.
I don’t know why, I had associations with Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh Yeah, Robert! Our favorite artist:) Love that!
🔥
really appreciate that y’all! Really means a lot 🙏
goldamn, those bent notes are piercing my soul. -C
cheers bud
Excellent
Awesome song Brother. 👍🙂

@@1st508thAirborneappreciate you brother! I saw your video this morning, keep up the good work friend 👊
Time keeps rolling
3 + minutes I will never get back
But It is worth it
Keep jamming
It keeps you Young at heart
That is important
right on y’all 👊👊
Music & Laughter at my own Aging & occasional forgetfulness are important to me & I learned long ago that HUMOUR Is The Very Best Medicine On This Trip Called LIFE. Cheers. 🎵🎶 🇨🇦
I have not heard anything that authentic sounding in a While. I been going back to The Band with Levon lately. I might be around Amy Helm here soon. I don't know her real well but I know her family. I can't promise anything but I'll pass it along if I get a chance to. They have them midnight rambles in upstate NY. Good breeding ground for good Authentic sounds. Well done, video too.
Very kind of ya 🙏
OMG I loved the video and the music. You captured something real, and put it into music and pictures. I'm 70 and can really relate. Thanks for posting.
Appreciate you watching & reaching out. My drummer and longtime band mate made the video. I’m still blown away by some of that imagery, haunting
❤ 72yrs Married 50yrs have small family. Just barly keeping touch. Got a service dog training her myself. It has losend my age Dog named Daisy! Peace Out and Love My friend MMLZZZ
Cheers Mark! Hope this finds you well bud 👊
Like it.....a lot. Bluesy, folksey. Cool.

My mother in law said "Getting old isnt for the faint hearted"
facts

Thats a bad ass tune there bro, gettin old is the same feelin day after day...its solid in my soul.

Save yourself..Eastwood Quote " Don't let the old man/ woman in.."..⚘️
I'm 69nr and Rocking along HalleluYah ❤
he yeah keep rockin brother 🔥
Wow, this is a discovery!!! Great song!!
thanks y’all ❤️
Nearly 77 and getting tired which still comes as a puzzle . 1947 don't seem long ago but take 77 from 1947 and you get 1870 and take 77 from that and you get 1793 and that shows how old you are.
It’s pretty crazy when you think about it that way
@@robertconnelyfarr yes, I do this a lot. Counting forward from a year, then counting the same amount back. Gets things into perspective.
Reminds me of times when some kids grew up in potato sack shorts.
I refuse to be old . 5 for the rest of my life . This blues is remarkable
Thanks y’all! 🙏
Intro has that wonderful Blackberry Smoke feel … keep em coming
Appreciate that y’all!
When I roll the motorcycle out of the garage this will be on my play list of cruise music! Good shit
hell yeah brother
the secret of my external youth is being friendly [also] w young people! and, of course, w older!
internal!
Great Sound! I'll be sharing.
Wow just wow i clicked on it and got chills thanks.
Appreciate the words Mike 🙏
This is deep!
cheers brother ❤️
Damn awesome
Cheers brother
I was borned with a lost soul

I sometimes ask friends and family what songs they may request when their would be journey here on earth is over for all to hear as their new journey begins....
This is now my number one to be played last on on my final set list...

GOOD ROCK BLUES YOURS ARE PLAYING. CONGRATS FROM MÉXICO. 👋🌈🎸🔥😎
muchas gracias amigo 🍻
@@robertconnelyfarr bienvenido 👋
Must have been something in the water.
I’m tired of getting old too. When you find Jesus Christ as your savior things seem to slow down a little. Folks may want to try it out. God Bless my friends
Each to their own, but not for me.
absolutely killer !
Just discovering you - what a find! Love your Delta Blues style. Running off now to find more! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Appreciate that Freddy! Hit us up at Bandcamp bud 👊 robertconnelyfarr.bandcamp.com
deep blues... love the vibe
heavy
Awesome. ❤
thx cuz!
Wow this song really took off lately. You are due for some more success. To all the new people that just discovered you, I would tell them to check out Shake It and Country Supper, I think those are your best albums so far.
Appreciate you Daren
Thank You for suggesting Listening to these 2 other songs- took a photo so I don’t forget!😂🤣 … getting Older, however, Humour about getting older is a Must for me & it gets others Laughing with me. 🎵🎶. 🇨🇦
Amen 🙏
@@rheahayes3149 Ditto!
meine graziös liebe, die ich persönlich nicht erreichen kann. Ich wünsche mir von Gott, dass ich dich wiedersehen kann und ich wünsche mir, dass Jesus mir hilft, wieder Teil deines Lebens zu sein. Ich habe nie aufgehört, dich zu lieben, und das werde ich auch nie tun meine liebe Uli 💔😞
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🔥
Wow. I love this. You capture a mood.
thank you 🙏
Thats a damn jam for us folks seriously
Some say it's just a state of mind, but I'm beginning to lose that too! 😅
🤣🤣🤣
00:36 Very good, keep it up!
appreciate that yall!
The older you get the faster time goes and you get more and more isolated from what's going on around you. Young people don't want to be around us old folks and I guess I don't blame them. I'm not in any hurry to die, but someday I will probably welcome it when it comes. You got to put your faith in Jesus Christ because things of this world are here one day and gone the next., but God is eternal. The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord according to Romans 6:23
Love it, man! 😎👍
Aight Cap’n Ganja 💨💨💨🙏
Hey getting old beats the alternative , think about it & let me know what you come up with. I'm 62 still going strong maybe not as strong but still at it hard.
that’s a good line “not as strong but still as hard” 🍻
Great Music & A Great Sense Of Humour Is The Best Medicine For Me As I Get Older…I Do Occasionally Forget & I Laugh Out Loud & Eventually Remember Within The Same Day…. I’m Grateful That I Always Eventually Remember Within The Day Because Many People Suffer With Dementia. My Beloved Parents & Both Sets Of Grandparents Died & None Of Them Ever Had Dementia. Best Wishes For Great Health. Cheers 🎵 🎶 🇨🇦
Ain’t nothing you can do about getting old, In my alleged mind, I’m not 59, but my neck down, My body certainly feels like my age, 59! I do not want to start over again, Hell NO!
couldn’t pay me to do it over haha
Excellent brother🤘
thank you
Irmão isso é um clássico eterno
🍻🍻 cheers brother
😮
Beautiful song. I'm 30 and struggling with growing older. I fear I will soon not be able to recognize myself in the mirror anymore. I am afraid of poverty when I grow old and of being physically weak, ill and in pain as well as terribly lonely.
Worry about tomorrow when it comes my friend. It comes for everyone. You will never be lonely here. 🕊🍻
im a old boy here, i awake to my companion Pain everyday, one day he might get the best of me but for now i kick his ass all day everyday. merry christmas young man
@@ericswain70 Thank you man, wish you the best!
@@blake-qh9xp I like your attitude, thanks...wish you the best.
When your going through hell, go right through it.
That old boy at the end has had a tough life, probably worked his ass to the bone.
ain’t that the truth
I bought that tractor brand new .
Is this all played on one chord? Love it!
yessir
@@robertconnelyfarr Perfect! It means I can bash it out with my limited, er, very limited, guitar skills. You got a new fan Robert.
appreciate that John 🍻 ya I’m in an open C minor tuning I think - it’s what Jimmy Duck Holmes usually plays in - CGCD*GC
Sounds like Bruch Springsteen singing.
It's a privilege 💚🙏😎🫡💯💚
