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 a rounder in your old hometown
Don't mind the grey in your hair
Just think of all the fun you've had puttin' it there
As for that old book of time, you've never skipped a page
So don't be ashamed of your age, brother
Don't be ashamed of your age
Listen, Mr. Smith, Mr. Brown
Don't let your age get you down
Life ain't begun until you're forty, son
That's when you really start to go to town
Don't wish that you were a lad
Why, boy, you've lost more gals than they've ever had
And, listen, you've graduated from that ol' sucker stage
So don't be ashamed of your age, brother
Don't be ashamed of your age
