May I relate to you
A few thoughts that I had
A few thoughts that I thought of yesterday
As I sat home a-drinkin'
And all at once was thinking
Well, you don't get any younger by the day
Well boy, you just can't kid yourself
You can't give up and leave your life on a shelf
Before you know it, you're growing old
And it's too late
You don't get young anymore
You don't get young anymore
You don't get young anymore
Not like before, not anymore
I thought about this more
Until I was quite sure
A few thoughts that I thought of yesterday
As I sat home a-smokin'
My mind was thought-provoking
You don't get any younger by the day
So be as good as you progressively can
And just remember time awaits no man
Don't be the one to show up late for your own wake
You don't get young anymore
You don't get young anymore
You don't get young anymore
Not like before, not anymore
