Don't Be Ashamed Of Your Age

Now don't be ashamed of your age, Lord no
Now don't let the years get you down, oh, boy
That old gang you knew, yeah
They still think of you, I wanna
As a rounder in your old hometown, I hear you Jerry

Now don't mind the gray in your hair
Just think of all the fun you've had
Puttin' it there, yeah boy
As for that old book of time
You've never skipped a page, get it down

So don't be ashamed of your age
Mr George Jones
I hear you Jerry
Don't be ashamed of your age

Now listen here to me Jerry Lee, I'm listenin' George
Don't let your age get you down, ain't got me yet, son
While life ain't begun until you're 40 son, that's a lot
That's when you really start to go to town
Wish I could go back to 40

Now don't wish that you were a lad
While boy you've lost more gals
Than they've ever had, I like to think so
Listen, you've graduated
From that ol' sucker stage, I'm listenin' boy

So don't be ashamed of your age
I hear you Jones
Don't be ashamed of your age
One more time
And we are not ashamed of our age
