My knees are weak, my back is shot
my six pack abs have gone to pot
my hair is thinning and turning grey
I find things wrong with me most everyday

skin like leather my joints are sore
I don't think I can take much more
ache and I groan at every turn
my mind forgets you'd think I would learn

I've got pills for this and more for that
can't seem to find one to bring my youth back
blood pressures high sex desires gone low
even when driving I move real slow

rap music hurts could you please turn it down
I can hear that crap thumpin clear across town
yeah I'm getting older and set in my ways
reason I'm so grumpy I miss my younger days

back in my youth there was no stopping me
my body now refuses to let me be free
I'd probably be dead if it weren't for my guitar
music soothes my soul sends my pains off afar

jumpin and jammin and spinning around
you gotta luv the sight of an old man gettin down
playing guitar makes me feel good no lie
the day that I can't play is the day I wanna die
