Never Too Old To ... Play Bass

The years rack up so quickly
Time fly by so fast
And life sure start to teach you
That things ain't meant to last
Gravity just takes over
Everything drooping on down
No more chasing the pretty young things who be
Running all over the town

When you ever feel you just chasing the clock
Remember -
You ain't never too old to rock

The body just can't take it
Your knees they start to creak
And what used to be three times a night
Is now barely once a week
No body stays young forever
No matter what you try to do
Can't no more do all the things that you did
When you was a younger you

Get your heart ready for electric shock
Cos for dam sure -
You ain't never too old to rock

And when you lay there on your dying bed
And the doctors won't leave you alone
Testing for this and a-testing for that
And your body all skin and bone
Get yourself some headphones
Plug into your favourite songs
Time to power your final hour
Get back to where we all belong

When on Heaven's Door you make your knock
Give thanks for the fact
You was never too old to rock
