Many people worry about age
But you are as young as you feel
Even dance upon the stage
Dancing the Virginia Reel
My youthful days are behind me
I'm much more settled in my ways
Just want you all to vividly see
That I don't foolish waste my days
I like to visit with my friends
Take a shopping trip down town
Looking for the latest trends
Make a smile out of a frown
Never worry about your age
Take one day at a time
Just be yourself you'll be a rage
Give your grandchildren a dime
Let them help you with your chores
Give them something worthwhile to do
Give them hugs and kisses and more
They love spending time with you
