Lyrics
Well, I'm 69 years old and I can say
I ain't going to fight in no man's war today
'Cause they don't want nobody
Don't want nobody as old as me
Someday you'll get there too
And the same thing's gonna happen to you
When you're young and dumb
Your birthdays come too fast
When you get a little older then it
Won't make you feel so bad
When you're looking over the hill
Man, you got a different point of view
Don't have to go nowhere you don't want to
Don't have to do nothing you don't wanna do
(When you're 69, alright, little Dale)
Let's go
Yeah
Just like an old dog
When you can't learn no new tricks
Every day you wake up
Something needs to be fixed
Light up in the morning
Have a cup of afternoon wine
Take your breakfast in the evening
'Cause you got no sense of time
When you're 69
Man, it ain't no use in crying
You live life to its fullest
There won't be no more time for dying
When you're 69
