Woke up this morning feeling dazed
Oh what a way to start your days
These tired old bones move but with much dread
Slowly and painfully I crawl out of bed
I look out the window at the morning sun
I look in the mirror at what the years have done
My skin is wrinkled, I have thin gray hair
I look at what time has done with feelings of despair
These aching joints of mine protest as I stumble down the stair
I tell you, friend getting old is really hard to bear
My sex drive has vanished and my passions are spent
I’ve done lost my marbles and know not where they went
These old bones are weary and my muscles are tired
I almost went to work today but then remembered I’m retired
I drop into bed at night and close these tired old eyes
Tomorrow when I awake I will thank God for still another sunrise
