Love In the Twilight Years

Can we talk about love in the twilight years Ain't not no expert I must confess But the older I get, find myself ogling young ladies Might even think this old guy's obsessed Not at all my friends, I can take 'em or leave 'em Now what the hell am I saying Prettying up the landscape more than us guys Hope there's plenty upstairs I'm praying How boring to live an eternity without ladies Sure wouldn't look forward to that Rather go down below where the bad girls are They'd certainly adjust my thermostat I've led a clean life for the most part I'd say But for a couple of minor infractions Like running around with a bunch of loose women All part of a young lad's passion Let's talk about love, a favourite subject of mine Ain't not no expert I must confess The older I become, the more decrepit and sad Going to miss seeing girlies undress © Jack Ellison 2015

Ain't No Expert? Honestly, if your not... then who else? Expect you to some day teach Dragon the Birds and the Bees... Beside that one eats bird seed and the other stings!

You're right, I should be an expert at my age! However I still don't think any different than when I was 20 years younger so don't go by me!!! xxx

That's the down side but to compensate we must make more use of our hands!...
