Song lyrics

[Elton John:]
Don't abandon the light,
Don't step away,
Don't give up that tune,
That you never could play,
If you're folding your tent,
And the gas pipes groan,
If every bone rattles
Through nights all alone,
Well you're tougher
than leather,
No old burlap sack,
Not some hard scrabble weed,
Growin' up through the cracks

[Elton John and Leon Russell:]
Don't you know,
You're never too old,
Never too old,
To hold somebody,
Don't you know,
You're never too old,
Never too old,
To hold somebody,
You're never too old,
To hold somebody

[Leon Russell:]
Don't think you've gone out,
Don't flicker and fade,
If you're gonna get lemons,
Then you do what they say,
The wind makes you weary,
Oh and knocks you around,
Logs on the fire,
Beat sun shining down,
But you're harder than nails,
No skinny old tack,
You're still sharp as a razor,
And I like you like that

[Elton John:]
I could bet on a horse,
But I'm betting on you,
You've still got what it takes,
You've got nothing to prove
