Retha Shortridge Poet Lyric

Never Too Old To Love

You're never too old to love,
Like the moon and stars above,
Your tummy may be round,
Your hair a little gray,
You may get too old to work,
But never too old to play.

You may be 18 or even 24, 
Every day you learn a little more,
When forty finally rolls around,
Don't let nobody put you down,
They may say that life has passed you by,
But, you'll find out that's just a lie,

You may be 50, 60, or even 72,
I bet there's lots of loving in you,
If someone should come along,
And try to put you in a nursing home,
Tell 'em to take a flying leap,
You don't have time to sit and sleep...

Stand right up and let the old world know,
You never quit loving just 'cause you got old..

repeat first verse
