Don't Let the Old Man In

I’m 73 and I know the old man is on his way to my door. My body is weathered and worn, broken and torn. I try not to think of him but every now and then he crosses my mind. It makes me a little sad but then I remember the days when I didn’t give him one thought. I was young and healthy. I walked without pain, my body was straight and not bent, and my hair was not white. The old man will come for us all one day, that’s a given . I’m just thankful for the years I’ve had and I pray I made good use of the life God gave me. When I finally have to let the old man in, I pray he escorts me to heaven’s gate.Rest in peace Toby and all those who have taken that long walk with the old man. God’s speed and God bless.

72 year old Vietnam vet, widowed for 4 years now and trying my best to not let the old man in.

The old man will get in because he has the Master Key... But for those who accepted JESUS, it will be a Glorious day. We will finally be Home with our Creator and Father! 🙏😇

I'm a 97 year old WWll veteran widowed for 2 years and trying my best to not let the old man in. It gets harder and harder but I'm not giving up.

I'm 67. I had an active, and physical career that took a toll on my body, and it tells me that every day. But I look out the window, and tell myself, "not today old man, not today.

Got the sad news just a few minutes ago and it is what brought me here: Toby Keith has died, 18 months after revealing he had stomach cancer. He was 62. The singer died surrounded by his family, a short statement said. His patriotism and his music will keep him alive in our mind. RIP Toby! 😢

Clint Eastwood gave breath and life(inspiration) to this song...Toby said. Then Toby came in, birthed it, coddled & nurtured it, then raised it up to give it to all to hear. Just like his children said...Toby Keith was a more beautiful Father. Toby put alot of Love into everything he did... God, his Family, his songs, his Community & Country that raised him up... Oklahoma USA. Prayers for Toby & his Family. 😢🙏🙏

A firm Marine salute to you Toby Keith! A truly beautiful song!

This video says it all for so many of us who have stood at a National Cemetery and watched the Soldiers hand the flag to your Mother. These young men and women gave it all so we could be free, Thank you to each one of you with love.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, does remembrance services for their armed forces personnel like the Americans. Respect from 'across the pond'

What a beautiful song - I play it constantly - and cry a lot - its so, so beautiful. Thank you Toby Keith xxx

To all the military service members that see this, I appreciate you very much. Thank you for your sacrifice for our country. God bless you !!

I had never heard this song before until a NH State Trooper who is retired told me about it. It is so appropriate to put this song to the Military Troops marching through the military cemetery. I am former United States Air Force & United States Army..Sgt First Class..retired. Federal LEO Officer..retired..disable...so proud of my Country & my Military Families...thank you...God Bless America..together we stand..divided we fall.....All Gave Some..Some Gave All.

Love this song and video.

70 now. Who’d have believed we’d live through all of that to have to worry about the old man. He’s been there the whole time. 2 way rifle ranges, short rounds, helicopter crashes, 141’s engine failures. Malfunctioning parachutes. God bless this country. May God give us the light. We sure as shit need it.

Thank you Toby Keith for this song you are a great singer

80 yr old Viet Nam vet. Also widowed “the old man will come when he will. I am not afraid. I still ride a HD and will till I cannot. Semper Fi.

As a lady of 72 I want to thank Toby. I fight every day to not let rhenoldblady in. My mind thinks I am 40 and I live that way. My heart goes out to Toby!

Too many friends are in that cemetery. But we all fought bravely to get there! 👍👍 10👑

this song gives me goosebumps, every time. I'm 78, my husband is 80...we sort of live this song every day--
