Gonna Live Forever

Gonna Live Forever

Looks like this geezer
Will live on forever
When I'm out for a stroll
Gait's light as a feather

Most folks mistake me
For a much younger dude
They think I'm about forty
Don't want to be rude

So they guess around fifty
Some guess sixty or so
Certainly don't blame them
My age doesn't show

I'm proud as a peacock
This image I'm showing
For a man who's reached 80
My pride's overflowing

Owe it to a life all filled with joy
Singing just happy songs
Shooing away all the nasty clouds
Sun shines all day long
