Don't Be Ashamed Of Your Age

Don't be ashamed of your age Don't let the years get you down That old gang you knew, they still think of you As all rounder in your old hometown Don't mind the gray in your hair Just think of all the fun you had puttin' it there And as for that old book of time, boy, you never skipped a page So don't be ashamed of your age Brother, don't be ashamed of your age And now listen Mr. Smith and Mr. Brown Don't let the years get you down 'Cause life ain't begun, until you're forty, son That's when you really start to go uptown And don't wish that you were a lad While boy, you've lost the old girls they've ever had And what's more, you've graduated from that old sucker stage So don't be ashamed of your age Brother, don't be ashamed of your age
