29 years and it's over the hill at 30 |
|
They got your wheelchair ready |
|
And your hiking boots are not even dirty |
|
Lady luck, a-stepping up beside you greet her |
|
You'll do some climbing together |
|
But then she runs out for somebody younger |
|
There's a shining prize from a carefree day |
|
When the world round was cheering to win |
|
Now daddy who's chairless lets out his belt |
|
And music plays and peace is made for someone else |
|
Over the hill and the bread of the times is yours now |
|
And most deciding |
|
A lot of work and little enjoying |
|
Some along the line get a feeling they have been cheated |
|
Spirit defeated |
|
Young is best is always conceded |
|
There's a shining prize from a carefree day |
|
When the world round was cheering to win |
|
Now daddy who's chairless lets out his belt |
|
And music plays and peace is made for someone else |
|
39 years and the chair is hard to wheel at 40 |
|
How would you feel |
|
If you would sit down to roll around at 20 |
|
I submit to you my many friends |
|
Better out of tune for there to lend |
|
Good time, everybody in the fold |
|
Got sunshine for everybody young and old |
|
Good time for everybody in the fold |
|
Got sunshine, everybody young and old |
|
Sunshine for everybody in the fold |
|
Got good times for everybody in the fold |
