You Can Bet Your Bippy
Do I love life, you can bet your bippy
More than I ever have before
With old age comes a certain tranquility
Which eluded me in days of yore
I now see this life as I never have before
With the truest sense of fulfillment
The trials of business and raising a family
Behind me, the future looks brilliant
Settling in to this new life unencumbered
With a freedom never felt before
A feeling of accomplishment, of satisfaction
New experiences knock at my door
Whatta life I've led, a charmed existence
The envy of friends and loved ones
Feel real special, one of a very select few
Been a participant on an amazing run
Do I love life, you can bet your bippy
More than I ever have before
With old age comes a certain tranquility
Which eluded me in days of yore
