WHEN YOU'RE YOUNG

You are sexy
If you have a Letterman's jacket
In Two sports--a doll!
Girl in each arm
Black curly hair
Smiley pearly whites
Look good in Jeans
And a "55" Chevy
When you're old
Waist smaller than belly
Have your own hair
Can still see to drive
Don't have store bought teeth
and cheater glasses
Find a front seat in the van
and remember to save one for your lady
Have Social Security and a pension
Have or once owned a Buick
But have recently bought a Porsche
Given up smoking--It was cool when young
Given up drinking-or can find
Your own way home from the bar
Really sexy if you can find your way home
Have served your country
When I was young a skinny nerd
But old age I have become a doll
Comb what hair I have over
OK, I drive a mini van
Cataract's are coming but no glasses
And she tells me where to sit
Mix one drink with pressure pills
and I am considered a Comedian
Until the acid reflex kicks in
When I was young I could sleep in
Now it is up every morning at six
It is not easy being sexy and an old man
