And I don&#8217;t mean old songs; I mean those lyrics that require time and experience to be sung right. A very good example is <em>Mannish Boy<\/em> by Muddy Waters: one thing is to hear a 25 year old sing it, a whole different story is to hear a 50 year old Muddy deliver it &#8211; and mean it. Another song of the same family is <em>Born Loose<\/em> by Rod Stewart (circa 1977, when Rod still brewed his nasty brand of Rolling Stones on steroids r&#8217;n&#8217;r). Maybe he meant it when he sung it (he didn&#8217;t know he&#8217;d be making Christmas albums in the future), but I can truly wear his lyrics with pride, especially when he says:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Born loose, I was born loose baby<br \/>\nSlow me down, you can&#8217;t slow me down<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">I was born loose, born loose<br \/>\nWrong side of my mama<br \/>\nWrong side of my dad<br \/>\nWrong side of the tracks<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">I was born loose baby<br \/>\nCan&#8217;t change me now<br \/>\nCause you&#8217;re too late now<br \/>\nToo late<br \/>\nTo change me now<br \/>\nNever change me now<br \/>\nBorn loose<br \/>\nBorn loose<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the privileges of age is to be able to sound convincing when singing old people&#8217;s songs.
