He's almost 57 But he remembers 25 like it was yesterday He still feels that way He's got a house in Sausalito But for nearly 30 years he made his bed Following the Dead [chorus] He's an old gray Deadhead Lost in the summer of '69 He's an old gray Deadhead He don't trip no more, but he still gets high He calls his girlfriend "mama" He wears a rock-and-roll t-shirt everyday And he hardly ever shaves He still loves "Truckin'" No matter what his other Dead friends say He loves "Truckin'" anyway [chorus] He had a motorcycle He sold it when Jerry Garcia died He said he had nowhere left to ride
