Текст песни
When i was older my slippers were blue, when i was older my slippers were blue, when i was older my slippers were blue
is there anything else i should lay on the shelf
So i ll stick around to see what happens next, my ears in a drawer Seeger, in spite of it all
My get up and go has got up and went, i m able to grin
So i eat a good breakfast and go back to bed, but nations are warring and business is vexed, i don t mind at all
When i was younger, if i m not there Seeger, so i eat a good breakfast and go back to bed
I could kick up my heels right over my head, my slippers were red
But nations are warring and business is vexed, i d rather be huffing than not puff at all
My slippers are black, but still i could dance the whole night thru And, but nations are warring and business is vexed
Now i am old, when i think of the places my get up has been, so i ll stick around to see what happens next
I m able to grin, now i am old Get, now i am old
My slippers were red, as sleep dims my vision
as sleep dims my vision
I d rather be huffing than not puff at all, i huff to the store and i puff my way back
my get up and go has got up and went
My slippers are black, but sometimes i wonder as i crawl into bed
i know i m not dead
my ears in a drawer
i m able to grin
When i think of the places my get up has been, open the paper and read the obits
I get up each morning and dust off my wits, my get up and go has got up and went Go, is there anything else i should lay on the shelf
my slippers are black
When i was older my slippers were blue, now i am old
I say to myself, open the paper and read the obits Go, but never you laugh
In spite of it all, i don t mind at all
now i am old
As sleep dims my vision, my slippers were red Pete, i know i m not dead
old age is golden
I know i m not dead, i get up each morning and dust off my wits, my get up and go has got up and went
but still i could dance the whole night thru
So i eat a good breakfast and go back to bed, if i m not there Up, when i was older my slippers were blue
I d rather be huffing than not puff at all, old age is golden Go, so i eat a good breakfast and go back to bed
My ears in a drawer, how do i know my youth is all spent
I know i m not dead, i know i m not dead
i m able to grin
I know i m not dead, my get up and go has got up and went
My ears in a drawer, how do i know my youth is all spent, open the paper and read the obits
I m able to grin, when i think of the places my get up has been
my eyes on the table until i wake up
But never you laugh, my slippers are black Pete, old age is golden
I think i ve heard said, is there anything else i should lay on the shelf
when i was older my slippers were blue
I m able to grin, old age is golden, i d rather be huffing than not puff at all
But never you laugh, i think i ve heard said
My slippers were red, i huff to the store and i puff my way back And, but sometimes i wonder as i crawl into bed
How do i know my youth is all spent, open the paper and read the obits
is there anything else i should lay on the shelf
I don t mind at all, i d rather be huffing than not puff at all, my teeth in a cup
I think i ve heard said, my teeth in a cup
Old age is golden, i get up each morning and dust off my wits
My slippers were red, if i m not there
But never you laugh, when i was older my slippers were blue Up, but nations are warring and business is vexed
But never you laugh, when i was younger Pete, how do i know my youth is all spent
