Don’t Be Ashamed of Your Age Songtext
von Willie Nelson

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 home town


Don′t mind the grey in your hair
Just think of all the fun you had puttin' it there
And as for that old book of time, boy
You never skipped a page, so
Don't be ashamed of your age
Brother, don′t be ashamed of your age

Now, listen, Mr. Smith and Mr. Brown
Don′t let the years get you down
'Cause life ain′t begun until you're forty some
That′s when you really start to go to town

Now don't wish that you were a lad
Why, boy? You′ve lost more girls than they've ever had
And once more you've graduated from that ol′ stubborn stage, so
Don′t be ashamed of your age
Brother, don't be ashamed of your age
