Don’t be ashamed of your age
Don’t let the years get you down
That old gang you knew they’ll still think of you
As a rounder in your old home town
Don’t mind the grey in your hair
Just think of all the fun you had putting it there
And as for that old book o time boy you never skipped a page
Don’t be ashamed of your age brother
Don’t be ashamed of your age
Now listen Mr. Bmith and Mr. Brown
Don’t let the years get you down
Cause life ain’t begun until your 40 some
That’s when you really start to go to town
And don’t wish that you were a lad
Why boy you’ve lost more girls than they’ve ever had
And what’s more you’ve graduated from that old southern state
Don’t be ashamed of your age brother
Don’t be ashamed of your age
