Thank God I'm Old |
When you see the shape the world is in |
When the way it is ain’t what it’s been |
When folks just care for gold |
Thank God, I’m old |
When you take a gander at the news |
When you hear the language people use |
When no sweet songs are sung |
I don’t wanna be young |
Daddy time he |
Doesn’t fret me |
Should he spy me |
That don’t upset me |
Let him eye me |
Come and get me |
That’s fine by me |
Age don’t worry me |
When you see the way folks misbehave |
When it’s only good times that they crave |
When kids are much too bold |
Thank God, I’m old |
When there ain’t no He-Men left alive |
When they tell you three men out of five |
End up locked up or hung |
I don’t wanna be young |
Gonna get me dressed and powdered down |
Call myself a hack and go to town |
See every shady street |
These feet once strolled |
Then I’m gonna slip back on the shelf |
Have myself a nip and tell myself |
Though my back buckles and bends |
My hair’s got silvery ends |
When I see all of my friends |
Laid out and cold |
Thank God, I’m Old! |
