I wear my jammies now

Hannah Hippo refused to dress
I worked much longer than the rest
Finally retired at ninety-one
I wear my jammies, and have such fun

I drink my coffee in the night
stay up and play the slots so bright
do it on zoom, a gambler I am now
I do not have to look pretty, no one to wow
