| [00:04.851] | How do I know my youth is all spent? |
| [00:07.977] | My get-up-and-go has got up and went! |
| [00:11.829] | But, in spite of it all, I’m able to grin |
| [00:15.456] | And think of the places my getup has been! |
| [00:19.879] | |
| [00:23.486] | Old age is golden, or so I’ve heard said, |
| [00:26.596] | But sometimes I wonder, as I crawl into bed, |
| [00:30.231] | With my ears in a drawer, my teeth in a cup, |
| [00:33.855] | My eyes on the table until I wake up. |
| [00:41.352] | As sleep dims my vision, I say to myself: |
| [00:45.484] | Is there anything else I should lay on the shelf? |
| [00:48.812] | But, though nations are warring, and Congress is vexed, |
| [00:53.699] | We’ll still stick around to see what happens next! |
| [00:58.095] | |
| [00:58.871] | How do I know my youth is all spent? |
| [01:01.198] | My get-up-and-go has got up and went! |
| [01:05.041] | But, in spite of it all, I’m able to grin |
| [01:08.917] | And think of the places my getup has been! |
| [01:17.692] | |
| [01:18.205] | When I was young, my slippers were red; |
| [01:21.061] | I could kick up my heels right over my head. |
| [01:24.688] | When I was older my slippers were blue, |
| [01:28.845] | But still I could dance the whole night through. |
| [01:35.292] | Now I am older, my slippers are black. |
| [01:38.119] | I huff to the store and puff my way back. |
| [01:42.242] | But never you laugh; I don’t mind at all: |
| [01:46.412] | I’d rather be huffing than not puff at all! |
| [01:49.726] | |
| [01:50.502] | How do I know my youth is all spent? |
| [01:53.601] | My get-up-and-go has got up and went! |
| [01:57.241] | But, in spite of it all, I’m able to grin |
| [02:01.114] | And think of the places my getup has been! |
| [02:04.718] | |
| [02:09.913] | I get up each morning and dust off my wits, |
| [02:13.292] | Open the paper, and read the Obits. |
| [02:16.917] | If I’m not there, I know I’m not dead, |
| [02:20.818] | So I eat a good breakfast and go back to bed! |
| [02:24.418] | |
| [02:25.192] | How do I know my youth is all spent? |
| [02:28.262] | My get-up-and-go has got up and went! |
| [02:32.142] | But, in spite of it all, I’m able to grin |
| [02:35.742] | And think of the places my getup has been! |
